Taken from the Tukino skifield access road, off Desert Road.

In February of 2023 I'd planned a trip to Turkey with a stop in Istanbul before heading to the South East. Tragically the quake hit on the 2nd day of the trip while I was still in Istanbul. In a pivot, I re-directed to Venice Airport, rented a car and then spent the remainder solo-road tripping through the Dolomites. These are the photos from that trip.

The glacier that runs from Jungfraujoch is the Aletsch Glacier (Grosser Aletschgletscher).

 

It is the longest glacier in the Alps, stretching about 23 kilometers (14 miles) from Jungfraujoch down into the Aletsch region of the Valais. The glacier is part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site and plays a crucial role in the region’s ecosystem.

 

The Aletsch Glacier is fed by smaller glaciers, including the Ewigschneefäld, and is flanked by peaks such as the Jungfrau (4,158 m), Mönch (4,107 m), and Eiger (3,970 m). However, like many glaciers worldwide, it is retreating due to climate change.

 

The Aletsch Glacier (Grosser Aletschgletscher) begins at Jungfraujoch.

 

At Jungfraujoch (3,454 m), the glacier originates from the Ewigschneefäld (Eternal Snow Field), a large snow-covered plateau between the Jungfrau, Mönch, and Trugberg mountains. From there, the Aletsch Glacier flows down into the Aletsch Arena in the Valais.

 

It is the longest and largest glacier in the Alps, extending about 23 km (14 mi) and covering approximately 79 square kilometers. It plays a significant role in the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a major attraction for visitors exploring the region.

The best viewpoints are from the Eggishorn, Bettmerhorn, and Moosfluh.

 

The best viewing points from near Fiesch are at Eggishorn (2,927 m) – which offers the most complete panoramic view of the entire Aletsch Glacier from its source at Jungfraujoch down to the Massa Gorge.

 

You can get there by taking the Fiesch–Eggishorn cable car via Fiescheralp.

 

Bettmerhorn (2,647 m) is another fantastic viewpoint, slightly lower but still offering a sweeping view of the glacier.

You can get there via a cable car from Bettmeralp.

 

Moosfluh (2,333 m) is a lower viewpoint but still a great place to see the Aletsch Glacier.

You can get to Moosfluh by cable car from Riederalp.

 

Summary of Viewing Locations:

At Jungfraujoch, as this photo shows, you stand on the glacier itself, but the view is more about being on the ice rather than seeing the full length of the glacier.

Belalp is another great viewing point, but its further away from Fiesch. If you want the classic postcard view of the Aletsch Glacier, Eggishorn is the best option!

To stand here on the Jungfraujoch Viewing Deck overlooking Europe's longest Glacier had long been a bucket list objective but to do it at near 37 degrees Celsius was not quite how I envisaged it happening.

With the Aletsch Glacier shrinking daily sadly it may not be an option for future generations.

 

The glacier that runs from Jungfraujoch is the Aletsch Glacier (Grosser Aletschgletscher).

The glacial cirque of the Aletsch Glacier at Jungfraujoch is framed by several prominent mountain peaks. On either side of the glacier's upper cirque, the key peaks are:

 

Mönch (4,107 m) – Located to the north of the Aletsch Glacier, this peak forms part of the trio of famous mountains in the Bernese Alps (Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau).

Jungfrau (4,158 m) – Situated to the west, this peak towers above the Jungfraujoch and is one of the defining summits of the region.

Gross Fiescherhorn (4,049 m) – Located to the east, this peak is part of the Fiescherhorn group and rises above the eastern flank of the Aletsch Glacier.

Trugberg (3,933 m) – A lesser-known but significant peak located south of the Jungfraujoch and in the middle of the glacial basin.

These peaks enclose the upper Aletschfirn, which merges with the other tributary glaciers to form the massive Great Aletsch Glacier, the longest glacier in the Alps.
