Riederalp is the car-free balcony of the Aletsch Arena, reached only by cable car from the Valais valley below and perched at 1,925 m above the longest glacier in the Alps. Sister to Bettmeralp on the same lift system, it gives 104 km of piste over the UNESCO Aletsch panorama. The Riederfurka and Moosfluh sectors are usually the quietest of the three terrace villages.

Snow report FAQ

How fresh is the snow data?+
