    The climb to Lac Lapitetaz initially leads past the Cascades on the left. Every step a highlight

      Wonderful view of the glacier tongue of the Zinal glacier which is framed by a high 3000 m. The high lateral moraine of the Zinal glacier shows how big the glacier once was. The front area of the glacier tongue down in the valley is formed by dead ice covered by glacier debris. Under the protection of the rock material rubbed off by the glacier, the ice will last for a very long time. In the upper area of the glacier you can also see the Serac zone with the large cracks and fissures that form under the ice sheet in the glacier when the relief changes. (Source: Wikinger Reisen)
