Nice view over (almost) the whole Aletsch glacier. Invites for a picnic.

Hiking

The Great Aletsch Glacier is a sight of archaic beauty. High up on the View Points Moosfluh, Bettmerhorn and Eggishorn, you will be most impressed by the size and uniqueness of the Great Aletsch Glacier. One can not escape the fascination of the gigantic ice stream, which runs down from its catchment area in the Jungfrau region (4000 m) over a length of 23 km to the Massa gorge, which is about 2500 m lower.
