    This hike takes us to the longest ice stream in the Alps (about 20 km). The Aletsch Glacier accompanies us nearly all day. Thanks to the wonderful panorama, the partly steep ascent to Hohbalm is quickly forgotten. Shortly before the Märjelensee, the Jungfraujoch and the Mönch can be seen in the distance. We take the shortcut through the Tälligrattunnel and soon reach our destination, the Fiescheralp.
