What you can expect

From Mörel, you can comfortably take the cable car up to the car-free Riederalp. You have two options to choose from: a large panoramic gondola to Riederalp Mitte or smaller 6-seater gondolas to Riederalp West.

To get to the viewpoint on the Moosfluh, you'll take a cable car from Riederalp Mitte. The modern combination cable car (6-seater chairlift and 8-seater gondola) takes you to the impressive Moosfluh at 2333 m above sea level. with a direct view of the Great Aletsch Glacier.

You can visit the Hohfluh by 4-seater chairlift (with weather protection hoods) in winter from Riederalp West (only in stable weather conditions). In summer, you can get there on foot. The two viewpoints, Moosfluh and Hohfluh, are about two km apart (as the crow flies). A high-altitude trail connects them and offers additional views along the way.

  • Clear view of the Great Aletsch Glacier, the Rhone Valley, and many Valais four-thousanders
  • Observation deck with benches and info boards about the glacier region, from here you can see the impressive curves of the glacier
  • Telescope for a detailed view of glaciers and mountains
  • Starting point for scenic trails towards Moosfluh and Riederfurka, ideal in good weather
