Exploring Rhone Glacier Switzerland – Furka Pass & Belvédère

The Rhone Glacier in Switzerland is one of the most iconic natural wonders of the Alps – a place where breathtaking scenery meets history and the visible impact of climate change. My visit in August 2025 marked the seventh in recent years, and each time the transformation of the Rhone Glacier has been increasingly striking. From the historic Belvédère Hotel terrace and along the legendary Furka Pass road – immortalized in the James Bond classic Goldfinger – visitors can witness both the majesty and fragility of the Rhone Glacier.

A highlight of every visit is the famous ice cave, carved into the Rhone Glacier for decades, allowing travelers to step inside the frozen heart of nature. The authentic sounds of cracking ice, echoing wind, and flowing meltwater create a truly immersive atmosphere. Yet today, this experience also serves as a poignant reminder of the glacier’s slow retreat – a living testimony to climate change in the Alps. More than sightseeing, it is a professional documentation where nature, cinema, and reflection on the future converge at the Furka Pass.
