The Garielenhaus got its name from its former owners. The house, however, has a long history behind it, exactly when it was built is not known. The number before the House Heidenmauer is supposed to protect the defense work before the, over the Sustenpass coming, Heiden. Between the house and the opposite chapel The old mule trail to Wassen or over the Sustenpass runs up to Innertkirchen.

1981 was the building shortly before the total decay. There were still three exterior walls and a holey roof. the house has been restored through a complete renovation. The interior was convenient, comfortable and easily selected. A large fireplace with convection serves as central heating.

The house is four-season booking. Winters in Meiental are most very strict, and one to two feet of snow are not uncommon. Especially in this time of year the house exudes its coziness and is felt existentially.

Amazing House in the Swiss Alps
Highly recommend. It is an authentic Swiss mountain experience. The host, Rolf, was very attentive and available for questions. The place was stocked everything we needed from Fondue pots, foosball table, towels, and cellar with wine & beer! Hope to visit again in the future.

sfeervolle uitvalsbasis voor fietsen/wandelen
Huis staat op prachtige plek in een gehucht aan de oude weg naar de Sustenpas- prachtig uitzicht vanaf terras op de bergen in het Westen. Knusse huiskamer op de begane grond met ruime eettafel en goed uitgeruste keuken. Prima bedden (wel laag) op de eerste verdieping- heel praktisch dat er twee douches/wc's zijn. Vanuit huis kan je direct mooi wandelen (bv naar Sustenpas), en fietsen; halte van postbus op 400 m- supermarkt in Wassen (7 km)
