2. Aare GorgeMeiringen The Aare Gorge is a section of the river Aare that carves through a limestone ridge near the town of Meiringen, in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland.

Familienhotel im Zillertal: Berghotel Gerlosstein in Hainzenberg - gemütliches Hotel mit Restaurant
Das Berghotel Gerlosstein in Hainzenberg im schönen Zillertal entspricht allen positiven Vorstellungen, die der Name zu wecken vermag. Mitten im Wander- und Skigebiet Gerlosstein, hoch über dem Talboden, thront das 3-Sterne-Hotel. Im Winter ist das Hotel für Gäste nur mit der Seilbahn zu erreichen, was die Romantik des Urlaubs in den Bergen noch unterstützt und den Vorteil bietet, direkt vor der Haustür mit den sportlichen Aktivitäten starten zu können.
Das Hotel-Restaurant mit seinen 30 Zimmern besteht bereits seit 1926 und ist nicht nur Ausgangspunkt für allerlei Ausflüge und Sportmöglichkeiten, sondern auch selbst beliebtes Ausflugsziel. Dies ist zum Teil dem hervorragenden Restaurant geschuldet, in dem Zillertaler Spezialitäten, hausgemachte Knödel und Bestes aus dem eigenen Garten angeboten werden. Auch das gemütliche Ambiente der Pension und die einmalige Aussicht tragen dazu bei.
Das Berghotel Gerlosstein – alles, was Urlaub in den Bergen bieten sollte!
