UNESCO World Heritage: Bernina Glaciers Region

The Bernina Glaciers region, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site, is a testament to the power and beauty of the Alps. It encompasses a vast area of glaciers, high-alpine landscapes, and unique ecosystems around the Bernina Massif. Visitors can experience stunning panoramic views of the ice giants, understand glacial retreat, and explore the diverse flora and fauna. While specific cable cars provide access to viewpoints, the experience is about the entire natural spectacle and its geological significance. Opportunities for guided glacier walks and photography are abundant, offering a profound connection with the alpine environment. Access to the viewpoints typically involves a lift ticket (e.g., Diavolezza cable car for approx. CHF 40-50 round trip), with guided tours varying in price.
