Langgletscher

Responsible for this content
Lötschental Marketing AG Verified partner 
Welcome to paradise!

The Hotel Fafleralp has over 100 years of hotel tradition. Nestled in the sparse larch forest, you can enjoy the peace and quiet and the view of the Lötschental mountains and glaciers of the Jungfrau-Aletsch-Bietschhorn UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Langgletscher is our base camp for hiking groups, school classes, clubs or the employees of your company. In the simple stone building 150 metres from the main building, you will find simple but functionally furnished rooms. With a total of 21 rooms, we can accommodate groups of up to 46 people. The single, double and triple rooms as well as the sanitary facilities were renovated in 2023. The fully equipped washing facilities, showers and toilets are located on the floor.
You won't find any heating here, which is why the Langgletscher is only open in summer.
