Dear outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers,
We are excited to invite you on an unforgettable one-day hike along the alpine crests of Valais, where you’ll experience one of Switzerland’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders: the Aletsch Glacier.
As the longest glacier in the Swiss Alps, the Aletsch offers breathtaking panoramas of pristine ice and towering peaks. This hike is the perfect chance to recharge in nature, enjoy stunning mountain views, and create lasting memories together with fellow students. You will be accompanied by our ESN staff members throughout the hike. And to round off the day, we’ll treat you to a refreshing drink.
We’ve carefully selected a family-friendly route, making it suitable for anyone with a basic level of fitness.
