On a prosperous sunny terrace above Meiringen, HASLIBERG (1000–1100m) consists of a scattered collection of hamlets and hotels made accessible by cableway from the valley, with more cableways continuing up to the high bowl of Mägisalp, and from there to Planplatten – a ski area with splendid views, which also gives plenty of opportunities for the walker. Hasliberg has more than a dozen hotels, as well as holiday apartments and chalets.
