Moiry Glacier

Moiry Glacier in the Swiss Alps.

This glacier, although only about 5km in length, is extremely impressive, about 12km south of Grimentz. PostBuses make the journey to the road-end, where there is also a sizeable car park. There are a number of good hiking trails from there, taking in great views of the glacier. 7km south of Grimentz, you'll hit the Moiry Dam and after driving through a tunnel, the artificial lake behind it. From there, it's a further 5km drive beside the lake to the road-end.
