    Die schönste Wandertour, um den Aletschgletscher zu bewundern. Aufgrund des Rückzugs auch dieses Gletschers ist man auf der Riederalp zum Beispiel gar nicht mehr am Gletscher. Am besten auch den Aussichtspunkt Platta mitnehmen, da von dort Sicht bis aufs Jungfraujoch gegeben ist! Nur der Weg zurück vom Tunnel der Gletscherstube bis zur Seilbahnstation ist etwas langweilig. Wer es interessanter möchte geht nicht durch den Tunnel sondern über dem Berg, dann ist auch der Rückweg schöner.

    Herrliche Tour. Allerdings ist der erste Abschnitt des Weges vom Bettmerhorn wegen Steinschlaggefahr wohl dauerhaft gesperrt. Es wurde eine Umgehung, die etwas tiefer verläuft, angelegt. Das tut dem Erlebnis aber keinen Abbruch.
