Gletsch is a hamlet in the German-speaking half of the canton of Valais, located in the upper Rhone valley, called Obergoms , 2.5 kilometres , southeast below the Rhone Glacier's mouth and itself the headwaters of the Rhône. It is called Gletsch , since the first building was the predecessor of the Hôtel Glacier du Rhône built more or less just next to the glacier's mouth in 1830. It belongs to the municipality of Obergoms. Gletsch lies at the crossroads of the Grimsel Pass and the Furka Pass . The Gletsch railway station is operated by the Furka Cogwheel Steam Railway.

The Best Attractions In Gletsch

1. Rhone Glacier Gletsch
The Rhône is one of the major rivers of Europe and has twice the average discharge of the Loire , rising in the Rhône Glacier in the Swiss Alps at the far eastern end of the Swiss canton of Valais, passing through Lake Geneva and running through southeastern France. At Arles, near its mouth on the Mediterranean Sea, the river divides into two branches, known as the Great Rhône and the Little Rhône . The resulting delta constitutes the Camargue region.

2. Trümmelbachfälle Lauterbrunnen
The Trümmelbach Falls in Switzerland are a series of ten glacier-fed waterfalls inside the mountain made accessible by a tunnel-funicular, built 1913, stairs, and illumination. Located in the Lauterbrunnen Valley, the creek called Trümmelbach alone drains the glacier defiles of Eiger , Mönch , and Jungfrau and carries more than 20,000 tons of boulder detritus per year.Its drainage area is 24 square kilometres , half of it covered by snow and glaciers. The falls carry up to 20,000 litres of water per second.After the hamlet of the same name on the valley floor the Trümmelbach feed into the Weisse Lütschine, which heads north through the valley and the village of Lauterbrunnen further down to join after 7 kilometres its sister river, the Schwarze Lütschine at Zweilütschinen, where the...

4. Furka Pass Canton Of Valais
Furka Pass , with an elevation of 2,429 metres , is a high mountain pass in the Swiss Alps connecting Gletsch, Valais with Realp, Uri. The Furka Oberalp Bahn line through the Furka Tunnel bypasses the pass. The base tunnel opened in 1982 and replaced a tunnel at 2100 m. The Furka Pass was used as a location in the James Bond film Goldfinger. Visitors can also park next to Hotel Belvédère, close to the summit, and take the short walk to the Rhone Glacier Ice Grotto. The glacier moves 30-40 metres each year, and the 100 m long tunnel and ice chamber can be visited from June when the road opens.

5. Aare Gorge Meiringen
The Aare Gorge is a section of the river Aare that carves through a limestone ridge near the town of Meiringen, in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland. The gorge is an indirect product of glaciation; 10,000 years ago, just as the Ice Age was coming to an end, torrential runoff water from melting glaciers eroded a deep, narrow chasm through the limestone barrier. Although barely one mile long, this passage is bordered by sheer cliffs up to 165 feet high on either side. The gorge varies in width from some 30 metres at its widest to just 1 metre at its narrowest.The gorge is a popular tourist attraction, many visitors attracted by the nearby Reichenbach Falls, which Sir Arthur Conan Doyle selected as the setting for Sherlock Holmes' murder by Professor Moriarty. Permission to build wal...

6. Lauterbrunnen Valley Waterfalls Lauterbrunnen
Lauterbrunnen is a village and a municipality in the Interlaken-Oberhasli administrative district in the canton of Bern in Switzerland. The municipality comprises the major Lauterbrunnen Valley , the Soustal, the Sefinental, the upper Lauterbrunnen Valley with Untersteinberg including several glaciers, such as the Tschingelfirn and the Rottalgletscher, many Alpine meadows and peaks, such as Schilthorn, Bietenhorn, Schwarzmönch, and Silberhorn, and finally the villages Lauterbrunnen, Wengen, Mürren, Gimmelwald, Stechelberg, and Isenfluh, and several hamlets. The population of the village Lauterbrunnen is less than that of Wengen, but larger than that of the others.

7. Staubbach Fall Lauterbrunnen
The Staubbach Fall is a waterfall in Switzerland, located just west above Lauterbrunnen in the Bernese Highlands. The waterfall drops 297 metres from a hanging valley that ends in overhanging cliffs above the Weisse Lütschine.The stream, on reaching the verge of the rocky walls of the valley, forms a cascade so high that it is almost lost in spray before it reaches the level of the valley. After rain, and early in the season when fed by the melting snows, the Staubbach Fall is a very striking object. The force of the stream above the fall at such times is sufficient to carry the water clear of the precipice, and the whole mass descends in a condition of liquid dust, between spray and cloud, that sways to-and-fro with the gentlest breeze. In a dry summer, when the supply of water is much r...

Switzerland Summer 2017

By far my favorite country in Europe and one of the cleanest places on earth. I am so grateful and thankful for Chloé Schnorhk. She went above and beyond to show me around her gorgeous country. We went hiking, swimming to the lake, running, shopping at the farmer's market, prep vegan meals and sightseeing. She even organized a vegan-potluck where I met the most amazing souls. I didn't want to leave Switzerland, to be honest. I can not wait to come back next summer and spend more time there.

Rhone glacier, Switzerland

Rhonegletscher (the Rhone Glacier), Alps, Switzerland 2009
The Rhône Glacier (German: Rhonegletscher/ Valais German: Rottengletscher) is a glacier in the Swiss Alps and the source of the river Rhône and one of the primary contributors to Lake Geneva in the far eastern end of the Swiss canton of Valais. Because the Glacier is located close to the Furka Pass road it is easily accessible.
The Rhône Glacier is the largest glacier in the Urner Alps. It lies on the south side of the range at the source of the Rhône. The Undri Triftlimi (3,081 m) connects it to the Trift Glacier. The glacier is located on the northernmost part of the canton of Valais, between the Grimsel Pass and the Furka Pass and is part of the Oberwald municipality. The Dammastock (3,630 m) is the highest summit above the glacier.

We Wanna Go around the world! In vlog #17, We drive our rental car (BMW) from Innsbruck, Austria to the small Alpen town of Vipiteno. Vipiteno (also known as Sterzing) is located in the autonomous province of Bolzano in Trentino-Alto Adige. The city is part of the most beautiful villages in Italy (a national circuit and guild). During our road trip, we try a little taste of Italian cuisine, roam the old streets and enjoy a little Christmas Market before heading back to our Innsbruck AirBnB.

Thanks for watching WeWannaGo TV,
