아래 주차장에 10chf를 내고 주차한 후(옵션 b) 이 다리의 모습에 놀라게 될 멋진 산책을 즐기세요.

포흐텐케셀(Pochtenkessel)은 베른 고원(Berner Oberland)의 프리투겐(Frutigen) 위에 위치한 인상적인 폭포 및 협곡 구간입니다. 이곳에서 엔그슈틀리게(Engstlige) 강은 좁고 바위가 많은 협곡을 통해 쏟아져 내리며 장엄한 자연의 소용돌이를 형성합니다. 특히 비가 온 후나 눈이 녹는 동안 엔그슈틀리게 강에 물이 훨씬 많아질 때 포흐텐케셀은 더욱 아름답습니다. 하지만 수위가 낮을 때에도 바위 지형과 물의 힘은 인상적입니다. 하이킹 중에 야생 자연, 물, 그리고 인상적인 암석 지형을 경험하고 싶은 모든 사람들에게 가볼 만한 가치가 있는 곳입니다.

The Chluse Gorge forms the spectacular entrance to the Gastern Valley and impressively demonstrates how the Kander River has carved its way through the massive rock over millennia. The gorge is narrow, steep, and characterized by towering rock faces over which the water roars into the depths – a true powerhouse of alpine geology. What's particularly fascinating is that the old road and hiking trail lead directly through this natural bottleneck. You can practically feel how isolated the valley once was and why the "Chluse" was considered a strategically important, yet dangerous, section. Today, it's easily accessible and an impressive start to any tour into the Gastern Valley – wild, rugged, and absolutely photogenic. 💧🪨📸✨

The old stone arch bridge in the Gastern Valley is an impressive example of traditional Alpine architecture. Built from local stone, it served for many decades as a vital link between the alpine pastures and the small settlements in the valley. Despite its age, it still withstands the powerful current of the Kander River, which emerges from the gorge here with particular force. Located directly above a narrow passage, the bridge offers a fantastic view of the milky-turquoise glacial water and the surrounding rock faces. The spot is easily accessible yet pleasantly quiet – ideal for anyone interested in historical buildings, geology, or simply breathtaking moments in nature. 💧🏔️📸✨

The Pochtenkessel is one of the most impressive spots in the entire gorge. Here, the water plunges with tremendous force into a naturally eroded rock basin, formed over millennia – a perfect example of how powerfully water can shape a landscape. The thunderous roar, the splashing spray, and the narrow rock walls create an almost mystical atmosphere.

Rather deep, possible with large backpacks but a bit cumbersome.

The drive to the official parking lot in Holzachsegga is an adventure in itself. The road is so narrow on the steep slope that even an oncoming bicycle wouldn't be able to pass. If there's oncoming traffic, you have to reverse for long stretches. From the parking lot, it's only a few minutes' walk to the gorge, which is truly breathtaking. Those with a bit more time can skip the parking lot and climb from the valley floor.

1960 The bridge and paths to the ,,Trockenen Lamm“ were dismounted because the cost of maintenance was too high. 1977 Financial investment was focused upon infrastructure and visitor's safety. 1987 The Aareschlucht restaurant at the west entrance was renovated. 2003 The MIB train stop at Aareschlucht Ost was accessed by a new swing-bridge. 2005 After a very bad storm, the gorge was closed for a few days during peak season because of safety reasons. 2008 The Aare-Bistro at the east entrance was built.
