Dear hiker friends,

As we all know global warming is coming. Sadly, glaciers are melting fast. Take your chance to go hiking with a view of one of the biggest Glaciers in Switzerland!🌄 ESN Lausanne is taking you to Valais to enjoy a hike in Bettmeralp and an amazing view of Aletsch's Glacier. Take your best hiking shoes, a warm coat and join us to discover these amazing landscapes.

✧ The hike🙌: it’s about 13 km, with an elevation of 650 m and takes around 4 hours. Be sure to be comfortable with these conditions!

We will hike for a couple of hours and then stop for a picnic lunch with a view on the glacier!😍 Then we will go down to Riederalp where we will have snacks and drinks before taking the train back to Lausanne around 9 pm.

Don’t forget to bring your hiking shoes, lunch, dinner, some snacks, water and dress up appropriately because it will be cold up there. 

Your beloved ESN Committee 💜
