Where the energie flows
We’ve got the power!
At the Grimselwelt, you can experience the power of water up close. Our unique railway lets you marvel at nature from great heights. The historic hotels of Grimsel provide a blend of indulgence, relaxation and comfort. You can also go underground in Grimsel to discover the fascinating world of hydroelectric power and our greatest treasure – the Gerstenegg crystal gorge.
GRIMSEL HOSPIZ – HISTORIC ALPINE HOTEL
The Grimsel Hospiz is all about switching off and slowing down. In winter, you can soak in a steaming hot tub under a canopy of stars, or bask in the heat of the wooden barrel sauna while the snow blankets the ground outside. It’s a refuge for body and soul, 2,000 metres above sea level. In summer, our sun terrace beckons. Sit and savour some Grimsel cuisine as the view of the Grimselsee and the Finsteraarhorn takes your breath away.
POWER STATION TOURS
Electricity has been produced in the Grimselwelt for almost a hundred years. Our expert guides will show you around the impressive power stations, tunnel systems and dams, imparting their specialist knowledge and telling fascinating stories. Along the way, you will discover the true treasures of the Grimselwelt: the crystals!
