Witness that mystical moment on Eggishorn at 2,926m when the first rays of sunshine of the day bathe the Aletsch Arena in an incredible blaze of colour. With the Sunrise Ride, you can be one of the first people on the mountain and experience this spectacle live.
Â
Minute by minute, the light gradually overcomes the darkness and the Matterhorn and the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, and others, appear in the distance. Thanks to the 360° panoramic view, you also have a spectacular view of the Great Aletsch Glacier. This magical moment will be accompanied by alphorn players.
Â
The Sunrise Rides up to Eggishorn take place every Friday in July and August, with an additional ride on 1 August. Meet 15 minutes before departure at the Fiesch valley station. From there, the cable car takes you up to Eggishorn via Fiescheralp in a good 20 minutes, depending on the time of sunrise. The precise departure times are listed under Dates.
Â
After about an hour-and-a-half, filled with new impressions and your energy replenished, it’s back down to Fiescheralp by cable car. There, a fortifying breakfast awaits you in the Alpenlodge Kühboden restaurant.
Registration until the day before, 14:00. You will receive all information about the meeting point and the schedule by e-mail the day before.
