MEIRINGEN IS THE CHIEF TOWN IN THE HASLI VALLEY ABOVE LAKE BRIENZ. WE STAYED IN A CHALET APARTMENT IN HASLIBERG REUTI ON THE MOUNTAIN ABOVE MEIRINGEN FOR A WEEK. REICHENBACHFALLE IS JUST OUTSIDE OF TOWN AND HAS A FUNICULAR TO THE TOP. THIS IS THE FALLS FROM WHICH IT IS THOUGHT THE FICTIONAL CHARACTER, SHERLOCK HOLMES AND MORIARTY FELL TO THEIR DEATH. |
| DIED, FIGHTING WITH PROFESSOR MORIARTY |
|  | SHERLOCK HOLMES THERE IS A MUSEUM CONTAINING MEMORABILLA BELONGING TO HOLMES AND DOCTOR WATSON. HIS CHARACTER WAS RESUSCITATED BY CONAN DOYLE A FEW YEARS AFTER THE FALL FROM REICHENBACHFALLE. |
30 MINUTES FOR US TO GET TO THE STATION WE WALKED A QUARTER OF A MILE TO THE BUS STATION AND THEN RODE THE BUS DOWN THE MOUNTAIN TO BRUNIG WHERE WE COULD CATCH THE TRAIN TO MOST PLACES IN SWITZERLAND. | | |

Hasliberg itself seems to be off the beaten path. Haven't been there yet, but it's on my list! BTW, I love to stay in private homes/apartments! | herzog63 Sun Feb 23, 2003 09:51 UTC
