Message from Julie Brown

The Gelmerbahn funicular railway in Switzerland is a must-see! Located in the Haslital Valley on the Bernese side of the Grimsel Pass, it is one of Europe's steepest funiculars with a gradient of 106% sure to get your heart racing. Offering unbeatable views across the valley and of the granite peaks opposite, this cable car can take thrillseekers up to an impressive 1,860 metres above sea level in record time. If you have time, be sure to take a circular hike around the majestic Gelmersee lake or to the Gelmerhütte mountain shelter, or you could even descend via Chüenzentennlen and the old Grimselweg trail for those who are looking for more adventure.
