You should be sure-footed and have a head for heights, so let's go, but only in dry conditions. An old military access point leads directly up to the artillery observation post, or rather, the Bözstrasse.

The Rhone Glacier (sometimes also called Rotten Glacier) is a valley glacier in the source area of the Rhone in the extreme northeast of the canton of Valais in the central Alps of Switzerland. It is almost eight kilometers long, has an average width of about two kilometers and covers an area of about 15 km². The glacier was a major tourist attraction, especially in the 19th and early 20th centuries, due to its tongue, which at that time still extended far down into the valley near Gletsch.

Be careful at the entrance where you go from the rubber mat to the ice. I almost fell. I thought the frozen stuffed animals were funny. Nice atmosphere with the blue twilight.

Well, there is not much left of the glacier cave. We visited the cave for the first time in 2017 and are shocked today at what is left of it. The piece of ice in which the cave is located no longer has any contact with the glacier and the second piece covered with fleece also has almost no contact with the Rhone glacier. The glacier cave is the reflection of the Rhone glacier in the future.

A glacier educational trail leads through the picturesque high mountain scenery along the glacier lake to the ice grotto near the glacier tongue. For almost 200 years, this has been carved into the glacier practically every year and inside you can experience a "blue miracle" because the grotto shines in a wonderful blue light. Despite the enormous melting of the glacier, the Rhone Glacier is still almost 9 km long and up to 200 m thick. The glacier movement at the level of the ice grotto in the tongue area is 30 - 40 m annually or up to 10 cm per day; nowhere else in Europe can you get as close to a glacier as in the ice grotto in the Rhone Glacier.

The entrance area with ticket office and souvenir shop is the entrance to the Belvédère ice grotto and the Rhone Glacier. The grotto has been carved into the ice here every year since 1870 - at 2300 m above sea level you can experience the Rhone Glacier up close.

Glacier Grotto, Titlis It feels like you are traveling back in time: in the turquoise-blue twilight of the glacier grotto, where the ice, which is up to 5000 years old, freezes the air we breathe into clouds of mist, the mighty heart of the glacier beats. On the 150-meter-long path 10 meters below the surface, you can feel it under your feet and touch it with your hands. An experience that will touch you in a profound way.
