class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Although “Via mala” means “bad road” in Roman language, the Viamala Gorge is one of the most impressive gorges in Switzerland. The rocks, whose height reaches 300 meters, are located between Suchis GR and Andeer GR. The pass was visited by many writers, including Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) and Theodor Fontane (1819-1898). Today, there is a visitor centre, exciting trails and a viewing platform at the heart of this natural wonder.

The magnificent Uina Gorge is located in Graubeğen Val d’Uina. The Il Quar trail, which passes through the rocks, is especially popular among passionate hikers. During the walk, you can see the Uina River flowing meters below. The brave people who dare to pass through the pass are greeted by the wide pastures of the Alpine Sursass at the exit. The pass was, among other things, the filming location for the Swiss film “Schellen-Ursli” (2015).

It is said that healing water, the famous Pfäfers thermal water, gushes from the depths of Taminaschlucht SG. The walkway is approximately 750 meters long, 70 meters high and is open to visitors. One road passes through a tunnel partially dug into the rock face. On your way to the source, you are accompanied by a water vortex of approximately 36.5 degrees, through which approximately 8000 liters of water flows per minute.

The Rosenlaui glacier pass is located in the romantic Rosenlauital near Meiringen BE. There Weissenbach pushed himself into the glacier, creating a gorge 573 meters long and 155 meters high. Today you can walk through the narrow gorge, pass through the tunnels and admire the waterfalls in the gorge.

Visitors will find an adventurous route in the Aare Gorge. It is located between Meiringen BE and Innertkirchen BE and is 1.4 kilometers long. In 40 minutes, you can walk along the Aare, passing 200-meter-high cliffs that are not even more than one meter wide. The western half of the gorge is also wheelchair accessible.
