The driveway on the Sustenstrasse can be closed when there are large amounts of snow.

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.
