    The ground on which the Chapel Maria zum Schnee, the landmark of Bettmeralp in the Aletsch Arena, was built in 1697, has a long history. Even before the current building, there was a chapel dedicated to St. James on the same spot. It's no wonder, as you have a breathtaking view of the Valais mountain panorama from here. aletscharena.ch/aletsch-arena/poi/kapelle-maria-zum-schnee

    Very popular photo motif. Of course, it is also worth taking a look inside the chapel. Those who wish may also pause and say a prayer.
