Gelmerbahn — photo spot in Grimselstrasse, 3864 Guttannen, Switzerland
Gelmerbahn
Gelmerbahn delivers dramatic compositions: the steep open-sided funicular track plunging toward turquoise Gelmersee, jagged alpine ridges, waterfalls and seasonal snow patches. Best visited late spring–early autumn when the funicular runs (usually May–Oct). Sunrise and late afternoon provide warm side-light; mid-day highlights lake color. Accessible via Grimsel Pass/Handegg parking; purchase tickets at the lower station and expect queues on weekends. Bring layers—weather changes fast at 1900–230
