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!
