Awesome glacier view

Take a cable-car up to Riederalp or Bettmeralp and then further on to the top of Moosfluh and you will enjoy awe inspiring views of the biggest glacier in the Swiss Alps: the Aletschgletscher. Currently, it's about 23km long and shrinking (about 1.5km in the last 40 years) but it still has a thickness of nearly 1km at a specific place called the Concordiaplatz where multiple glaciers meet! This glacier is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
