Walk through Aare Gorge
... br> I eventually caught up to some people ahead of me but it was pretty quiet along the path through the gorge. Once I got to the other end, I intended to walk the Lammi path from the east entrance, where I exited, back to the west entrance then on to Meiringen. However, when I walked out the east entrance, the wind was so strong that I was being blow backwards down the hill while trying to walk up the hill to the top of the gorge ...
A restful day

I don't think they intend for people to stay that long, but they had a large tour group that arrived soon after we did and they got all the attention.
