Aletsch Glacier Trekking
Across the largest Swiss glacier from the Bernese Oberland to the Valais.
The ice masses of the Aletsch Glacier are unique. When you cross the Aletsch Glacier, you experience the ice up close and personal and walk through the mountain world of the Jungfraujoch, spend the night in the high-altitude Konkordiaplatzhütte and climb back into the green nature at the end of the glacier. We will show you and explain the various phenomena on the glacier, how it forms, how it flows and what kind of creatures there are on the ice. Experience the mighty power of the Aletsch Glacier at first hand.
