The Aare （German: [ˈaːrə]） or Aar （German: [aːr] （listen）） is a tributary of the High Rhine and the longest river that both rises and ends entirely within Switzerland.
Its total length from its source to its junction with the Rhine comprises about 295 kilometres （183 mi）, during which distance it descends 1,565 m （5,135 ft）, draining an area of 17,
779 km2 （6,865 sq mi）, almost entirely within Switzerland, and accounting for close to half the area of the country, including all of Central Switzerland.
There are more than 40 hydroelectric plants along the course of the Aare.
The river's name dates to at least the La Tène period, and it is attested as Nantaror "Aare valley" in the Berne zinc tablet.
The name was Latinized as Arula/Arola/Araris.
The Unteraargletscher The Aare at Innertkirchen Inside the Aare Gorge The Aare rises in the great Aargletschers （Aare Glaciers） of the Bernese Alps, in the canton of Bern and west of the Grimsel Pass.
The Finsteraargletscher and Lauteraargletscher come together to form the Unteraargletscher （Lower Aar Glacier）, which is the main source of water for the Grimselsee （Lake of Grimsel）.
The Oberaargletscher （Upper Aar Glacier） feeds the Oberaarsee, which also flows into the Grimselsee.
The Aare leaves the Grimselsee just to the east to the Grimsel Hospiz, below the Grimsel Pass, and then flows northwest through the Haslital, forming on the way the magnificent Handegg Waterfall, 46 m （151 ft）, past Guttannen.
Right after Innertkirchen it is joined by its first major tributary, the Gamderwasser.
Less than 1 kilometre （0.62 mi） later the river carves through a limestone ridge in the Aare Gorge （German: Aareschlucht）.
It is here that the Aare proves itself to be more than just a river, as it attract...
