--- title: "Rhône Glacier Adventure" url: "https://www.goms.ch/en/poi/rhone-glacier-adventure" description: "Experience the Rhone Glacier and its fascinating high-mountain landscape up close. The Glacier Nature Trail takes you through a landscape shaped by ice and vividly illustrates how the glacier has changed over the decades. From the GLACIER and LAKE VIEWPOINTS, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the GLACIER LAKE, the SOURCE of the RHONE, and a unique world of rock, water, and ice. Where massive glacial ice lay just a few decades ago, the transformation of the alpine landscape is now clearly visible. A special insight awaits you in the SMALL BLUE ICE CAVE, which has been carved out of the glacier practically every year for nearly 200 years. Summer heat and glacial retreat have drastically altered its size. It is precisely here that the changes to the Rhone Glacier can be experienced most directly. To round off your visit, the ALPENGARTEN, the KNEIPP FACILITY, the SOUVENIR SHOP, and the SNACK BUVETTE invite you to explore, relax, and enjoy yourself. The KNEIPP FACILITY is also open to visitors.Current opening hours: Plan your visit – Rhone Glacier ExperienceMore information: Rhone Glacier Experience – Belvédere at the Rhone Glacier on the Furka Pass in Valais – Switzerland – at 2,300 meters above sea level" language: "en" type: "Place" image: "https://dam.destination.one/3996187/dddf2f9069f679ee41c5e537ff1e6a9170b9b76c917aa9fa98ff0e4d4cd079a4/20260626_100958-jpg.jpg" breadcrumb: "Root > Goms > Special > Destination.Data Details > Poi" --- Share Rhône Glacier Adventure ======================= - Currently closed - Glacier 20260626\_100958.jpg Eisgrotte Furka Eisgrotte Furka 20260626\_100541.jpg 20260626\_095023.jpg Discover a unique landscape in transition Experience the **Rhone Glacier** and its fascinating high-mountain landscape up close.
