    Hi. We were thinking of heading off to the Aaru gorge and reinbach falls but was wondering if it would be better to see the tremmelbach falls. I’m interested in any feedback. Thanks Jacquie

    Hi Jacquie,

    I suppose you mean the Aare gorge (Aareschlucht), the Reichenbach Fall and the Trümmelbach Falls. One isn’t better than the other, they’re just different. The Trümmelbach Falls are a series of powerful waterfalls in the rocks. The Aare gorge is more like a stream in between rock walls. The Reichenbach Fall is a “classic” high waterfall. They’re all good, it depends on what you want.

    Just did Aaru Gorge –what a pleasant thing to do-glad we did it . Started at West entrance nice self paced walk and easy enough and nice enough to do the return via the Gorge . Inexpensive also! Have done Trummblebach Falls years ago and returned just last month–Spring melt was really nice here and the water was wild and roaring! Enjoyed both and they are different enough to do both and feel satisfied–neither were crowded but then we went this early in the season–and not too expensive to do both! If any problems doing stairs –Trummblebach has more and if I remember correctly the East entrance at Aaru has the only set of stairs but one may find it a problem if limited mobility.

    Thankyou for your feedback I really appreciate it. We ended up doing the reichenbach falls and the gorge and really enjoyed both. We also did a stop at thun before returning to Bern.
