Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Aletsch Glacier?

Aletsch Glacier is the largest glacier in the Alps, stretching approximately 23 kilometres through the Bernese Oberland of Switzerland. It flows from the Jungfraujoch saddle southwards and is part of the Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognised for its outstanding glacial and alpine landscape.

What does this print show?

The print captures the Aletsch Glacier at golden hour, with warm alpine light on the sweeping ice field and the surrounding Swiss Alps peaks framing the vast frozen river below.

Is the Aletsch Glacier retreating?

Yes — the Aletsch Glacier has retreated significantly over the past century, losing around 3 kilometres in length since 1900 and continuing to recede at an accelerating rate due to climate change. Scientists project that at current rates, the glacier could lose up to 90% of its volume by 2100. It remains one of the most powerful and visible indicators of glacial change in Europe.
