Believe it or not, the water we raft on every day comes straight from the glaciers; it melted just a few hours ago. That’s what makes the Lütschine so wild, refreshing, and fun.

What a place 🤯
📍 Jungfraujoch (Top of Europe), Switzerland 🇨🇭
🏔️ At 3,571 metres, on the Sphinx observation deck, you can enjoy the view of Aletsch Glacier, the longest glacier in Europe, and the surrounding 4,000+ metres high mountains, which give a spectacular panorama.
🧊 Jungfraujoch also has an ice palace carved in the Aletsch Glacier, which offers a frosty experience with handmade ice sculptures and the lifelike works of art made of ice.
🚂 Did you know that the railway station of Jungfraujoch at 3,454 metres is the highest one in Europe? And its rails are going inside the mountains of Eiger and Mönch.

🎉 What happens after hostel check-in?
👉 Balmers Club happens.
Basement dance floor, wild theme nights, cheap drinks, and the kind of stories you’ll almost remember 😅🍻
From “I’m just going for one” to “why is it 4 am?”, it all goes down here.

☀️🧺 What do you get when you mix hungry backpackers, a lake, and zero plans?
A classic Balmers sunset picnic, obviously.
We met at 5:45, brought questionable snacks, too much hummus, and just the right amount of chaos. Some swam, some sipped, some forgot towels... no regrets.
Been to a Balmers Lake picnic? What did you forget to bring? 😅👇

Spanning 1.4 km, this dramatic canyon is carved through 200-meter-high cliffs by the powerful Aare River, which has been shaping the landscape for over 10,000 years. The walk through the gorge is an easy and family-friendly experience, but don’t let that fool you—it’s anything but ordinary. The sound of rushing water, towering rock walls, and sheer beauty of this spot will leave you in awe.
It can get busy, so if you want to beat the crowds and enjoy the gorge in peace, aim for late afternoon or early morning visits. On a sunny day, the blue water of the river will leave you speechless.
How to Get There:
📍 Aare Gorge (Aareschlucht) is located near Meiringen in the Bernese Oberland, Swiss Alps. You can access it via two entrances (East and West), with the option to walk through or make a loop if you’re driving.
Entry:
💸 CHF 12 (No reservation required)
🕒 Opening Hours: April-November, 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (longer in high season)
Nearby Attractions & Hikes You Can’t Miss:
📍 Reichenbach Falls - Just a short drive away, this waterfall is not only iconic for its dramatic drop but also for its connection to Sherlock Holmes.
📍 Gelmerbahn - Europe’s steepest open-air funicular takes you to a stunning lake with hiking trails around it.
📍 Trift Bridge Hike - One of the most exhilarating hikes in Switzerland—don’t miss it!
📍 Meiringen - This small town is famous for its meringues and Sherlock Holmes-themed attractions.
Add Aare Gorge to your list of must-see spots in the Swiss Alps. It’s a perfect blend of nature, adventure, and a touch of history.
