Itinerary
Luggage drop-off in Brig, followed by a visit to the World Nature Forum, the visitor centre for the UNESCO World Heritage Site in Naters. Afterwards hike to Blatten and by cable car up to the Belalp.
From the Aletschbord best view to the glacier gate and the lower part of the Aletsch Glacier. Over a suspension bridge to the Aletsch forest with hundred-year-old Swiss stone pines. Like an eagle's nest, the Riederfurka with Villa Cassel is enthroned on a ridge of this magnificent Valais mountain world.
Like fireworks, unique viewpoints follow each other: In the north, a magnificent view of the Aletsch Glacier, the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in the south, the Valaisan four-thousand-metre peaks. Gentle descent to Märjelensee. Woolly grasses and small lakes form contrasts to rock and ice.
Pick up in the morning by a local mountain guide. Secured with crampons and a rope, you will hike across the largest glacier in the Alps. You will experience the effects of climate change at first hand. At the end of the tour, you hike through the Tälligrat tunnel to the Fiescheralp.
Back to Märjelensee and on old alpine paths we descend to the castle, a glacier-cut gneiss rock massif with the Goms mountains in the background. The Fiescher Glacier is visibly revealed. The 160-metre-long suspension bridge Aspi-Titter points the way to the idyllic Goms mountain village of Bellwald. Luggage retrieval in Brig and departure.
Tour character
A hike in the alpine region. You should be sure-footed and in good physical condition. For the suspension bridge over the Massa gorge you should be free from giddiness. Surefootedness is essential for the glacier tour.

Leave the car at home! For every bike, biking or hiking tour in Switzerland, you will receive an SBB coupon per participant, which you can use to deduct CHF 10 from the ticket price for traveling by train. The reduction can be obtained in the SBB online store or in the SBB app.
On many trips, we use the luggage counters at the stations at the beginning and at the end to hand over the suitcases. You can conveniently combine this right away when you arrive by train. If you are a GA owner, you can provide this information when booking. We will credit you the amount on the invoice. If you don't need the coupon for the trip itself, you can use it during the year.
