Checked out of Grachen after another fine breakfast. Will definitely stay here when (not if) I visit the area again.
Grachen -> Visp (at bottom of valley) -> drove east through many small villages on way to Grimselpass. Too many switchbacks to count.
Stopped at Aareschlucht (narrow gorge) on way to Meiringen. Then on to Brienz and finally Interlachen.
Called and got one night reservation at local hostel called Happy Inn Lodge. Stayed here several years ago. Clean, cost effective, and friendly owners.
