Winter
From December to the end of April, snow sports enthusiasts can indulge their passion to their hearts' content; snow is guaranteed. Riederalp, Bettmeralp and Fiescheralp are linked by 104 kilometers/61.5 miles of exquisitely groomed trails, including beginners' slopes, snow parks, half-pipes and free-ride runs as well. And the best part is: carrying your skis is forbidden. In the Aletsch Arena, you step out your front door directly onto the piste.
But winter walkers and hikers will also enjoy their stay here. Seventy-two kilometers (45 miles) of groomed winter hiking trails are available on the family-friendly, car-free Aletsch plateau.
An unforgettable vacation in the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site, at the edge of the Great Aletsch Glacier!
