Itinerary
- Day 1
Spending a night on a glacier is an extraordinary experience that lets adventurers immerse themselves deeply in the fascinating world of high-alpine landscapes. A night on a glacier is not only a chance to experience nature at close quarters, but also an opportunity to enjoy the impressive silence and vastness of these icy surroundings.
The day often begins with a challenging ascent through impressive mountain scenery, past rugged rocks and across wide snowfields. The glacier itself, with its deep crevasses and sparkling ice crystals, forms an impressive backdrop that shows a special play of colours at dusk. Once the campsite on the ice has been found, the camp is set up – tents are pitched, sleeping places carefully prepared, and precautions taken against the cold and possible changes in the weather.
- Day 2
When night falls, the glacier is wrapped in a deep silence, broken only by the creaking of the ice and occasional gusts of wind. The clear night sky, free of light pollution, reveals a magnificent sea of stars that bathes the glacier in a magical light. In this remote setting, a special feeling of calm and connection with nature arises – something that has become rare in our fast-paced world.
The next morning, after a night in this icy world, you wake up with an incomparable feeling of fulfilment. The sunrise bathes the surroundings in golden light, making the ice crystals sparkle and the surrounding peaks glow in warm tones. The descent begins, while memories of the silent night and the overwhelming beauty of the glacier linger for a long time.
Spending a night on a glacier is not only an adventure but also a profound experience that leaves a lasting impression and shapes your relationship with nature for good.
Sleeping on the glacier
Spending the night on a glacier is an extraordinary experience, but it is not possible or permitted everywhere. The sensitive environmental conditions and safety regulations in these high-alpine regions make it necessary to follow certain rules and regulations. These rules are important to protect the unique nature of glacier landscapes and to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
Even though we have to follow these rules, that doesn't make our adventure any less exciting or fun. On the contrary – within these limits there are plenty of ways to experience nature intensely and collect unforgettable moments. Whether exploring the glacier landscape, setting up camp together or watching the starry sky in the clear, cool air – there is no shortage of fascination and fun. By respecting the rules, we also help ensure that future generations can enjoy the beauty of the glaciers in all their splendour.
