It's a beautiful reservoir with a dam. Good for hiking. Scenic views. Spectacular lake and landscape. Do bring a windbreaker and hat. Sunscreen is recommended. Well, no matter. It's spectacular to see. The Alps in the backdrop and the flowers in the foreground make for wonderful photos. You can hike along or above the dam- and beyond, and also do some ziplining if you're inclined. Be sure to have a meal at Clem and Fabs- outstanding!

The source of the Rhone is a blue glaciers.
The Rhone Glacier in Valais, Switzerland, is more than 10,000 years old, and in the past 100 years, it has rapidly melted away. Scientists predict that the glaciers will disappear completely in 2100. Time does not heal the pain, time will only make everything in memory unrecognizable.

At the entrance to the small town of Euseigne in the canton of Valais, Switzerland, it seems as if descending from the sky, a large group of pillars with huge stones, which are super cool, are all naturally formed. The
stone pillar was formed at the end of the last ice age. When the glaciers retreated, the glaciers left a large amount of debris containing boulder. The glacial melted water gradually decomposed the boulder, and the water continuously eroded and split around the boulder. In the area, the stone released from the boulder becomes the protective layer of the underground soil, slowly forming everything in front of it.

The first day was the easiest. According to the book, it was only 2 hours. As a result, I walked for nearly 4 hours without training. I couldnt help but wonder if I could handle this line: first, language problems, followed by English guides. The book is always vague and slow to move; then it is a physical problem. When I go up, I have to stop every ten steps. Whether it is muscle or heart and lung, I cant adapt to this sudden high intensity. There are health problems. Budget issues, unknown dangers, meaning of completion... In short, I was motivated by the ideological struggle that day, and the final decision was: Try again.
The result of this test has passed for half a month. There were dangers and difficulties along the way, and the whole route was finally completed. An experienced hiker on the road told me that there are two kinds of routes he has traveled. One is to test the willpower, the other is to test the physical strength, and this road is both.
Recalling all this, I can say that I am taking a lot of adventurous spirits, and I am very lucky to be able to retreat from the whole body, so I really hope to share the harvest along the way after returning, not to mention the various things in the middle. Twists and turns.

The Alps are the largest mountain range in Europe. They are curved in Italy, France, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Germany and Slovenia. There are 82 mountain peaks with an altitude of over 4,000 meters. If you want to experience the beauty of these dangerous peaks yourself, I recommend this route from the French town of Chamonix under the "European roof" to the Swiss town of Zermatt under the Matterhorn, which is inserted into the mountains. Witnessing the glaciers into the alpine lakes and flowing through the beautiful Swiss towns along the creek, this is the most beautiful alpine hiking route in the Alps and throughout Europe!

The entire Jungfrau area is full of many walking lines, and the trains, cable cars and other supporting facilities are quite perfect, so how to tour is better? The Jungfrau area is full of hiking routes of all levels. Before departure, you can go to the visitor center's hiking manual in the Jungfrau area, which records the maps and time spent on each route in the entire area. It is very useful.
