Itinerary
Meeting pointsThe meeting point is directly at the OUTDOOR Base in Interlaken or alternatively you can choose to meet us closer to the canyon at Bus Stop Handegg, Gelmerbahn (meeting an hour after the trip time).
After a brief introduction by your guides, you will be given all the necessary gear and then jump in the shuttle out to the canyon.
The drive past Lake Brienz and through the picturesque Bernese Oberland takes about an hour and leads directly to the foot of the canyon.
Upon arrival at the canyon, you change outdoors. There are no changing rooms, but the view makes up for it. (for those meeting at Handegg, the guides bring this from Interlaken, so it is important that your booking details are accurate to ensure the gear fits).
Once everyone is ready, you jump back in the shuttle for a 2-minute drive to the canyon entry point, where your guides will give you a safety briefing and explain key techniques.
Entry into the canyon begins with a 50-meter rappel, which is unavoidable. After which natural slides, pools, and jumps of up to 5 meters await you. A highlight is the zip line, where you drop directly into the water below.
After making your way through the canyon, you arrive back at the starting point. There you get changed and eat a light picnic, including drinks.
Then it's back to Interlaken.
