  Aareschlucht

  A journey into the heart of the Swiss Alps Our first stop takes us deep into one of Switzerland's most impressive natural landscapes. The Aare Gorge is a spectacular limestone canyon carved by the Aare River over thousands of years. A wooden walkway leads through the gorge, bringing you surprisingly close to the rushing turquoise water and enormous rock walls. As you walk through the narrowest sections, the atmosphere changes completely. The sound of the river echoes between the cliffs while sunlight filters through the rocks above. It's an experience that feels very different from simply looking at a mountain from a viewpoint. You are inside the landscape.
