This gives two Basic Sections of very unequal dimensions, but the ., Alps being of natural origin cannot be expected to fall into more or less equal com­ partments. Two rather less unbalanced sections could be obtained by differentiating Ticino.- and Adda-drainage on the Po-side, but this would exhibit both hydrographic and Alpine inferiority.

  • Media Trip - Back to Nature
    Media Trip - Back to nature Resorts: Aletsch Arena and Val d’Hérens Dates: Sunday 12th to Thursday 16th August 2018 (5 days, 4 nights) Participants: max 10 journalists Highlights: Hiking to the Great Aletsch Glacier, introduction to yodelling, photographing stars on the Bettmerhorn, Europe’s first hotel built of straw, Green Mobility in the Val d’Hérens, “anakolodge” hamlet of renovated barns, Herens cows, alpine cheese-making, summer fair in Evolène. www.visitvalais.ch VALAIS/WALLIS PROMOTION Aletsch Arena Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch: that’s the title under which the largest glacier in the Alps appears in UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites. Nearby, the villages in the valley and the three car- free resorts up on the alpine pastures radiate a special charm with their traditional houses, typical of Valais, their wooden chalets and atmospheric hotels. The three resorts of Fiescheralp, Bettmeralp and Riederalp bask in the sunshine, midway between the valley and the sky. Six cable cars carry visitors from the Rhône valley up to an altitude of about 2,000 m to access these resorts and the idyllic hiking trails of the Aletsch region. Other chairlifts and cable cars carry guests higher still, to panoramic vantage points such as the Eggishorn (2,927m), which offers one of the finest views of the Aletsch and Fiesch glaciers. www.aletscharena.ch Interview possibilities - Aletsch Arena: - Markus Eichenberger, photographer and expert in time-lapse photographs - Monique Martig, qualified breathing therapist (German- and French-speaking) - Manuela Lehner-Mutter, conductor of the Jodelclub-Riederalp choir - Stefan Eyholzer, manager of Restaurant Bättmer Hitta and owner of Herens cows Val d’Hérens The Val d’Hérens extends from the Rhône Valley near Sion to the foot of a string of snow- capped peaks including the Dent Blanche, Dent d’Hérens, Mont Collon and Mont Blanc de Cheilon.

  • Eisströme Im Aletschgebiet Ice Streams in the Aletsch Region
    Eisströme im Aletschgebiet Ice streams in the Aletsch region Gletscher I Glacier Wissenswertes 2 Als die Gletscher bis ins Mittelland reichten … Es ist «nur» zirka 24‘000 Jahre her: Damals, während des Höhepunktes der letzten Eiszeit, der Würmeiszeit, glichen die Schweiz und damit auch das ganze Wallis einem zu lange nicht mehr abgetauten Gefrierfach: Der Fieschergletscher, der Grosse Aletschgletscher und der Rhonegletscher bildeten zusammen einen gewaltigen Eispanzer. Verstärkt und angeschoben durch die Eis- ströme aus den Walliser Seitentälern, reichten die Glet- scherausläufer bis nach Solothurn und der südliche Teil dieser gewaltigen Eismasse stiess sogar bis nach Lyon vor. Und es war kalt während der letzten Eiszeit: Die mittlere Jahrestemperatur lag 14-15° C tiefer als heute. Das ganze Rhonetal und sämtliche Walliser Seitentäler lagen also unter einer zusammenhängenden Eismasse, so auch das gesamte Aletschgebiet. Aus diesem Eis- meer ragten nur die höchsten Bergspitzen hervor: das Finsteraarhorn, das Aletschhorn, das Eggishorn, das Bettmerhorn, das Bietschhorn und das Sparrhorn. Zwi- schen Fiesch und Brig war der Eispanzer schätzungs- weise 1700 Meter dick und über der Riederfurka lastete eine Eisdecke von 400 bis 500 Metern Mächtigkeit. 1 Valuable Information 3 In the days when the glaciers reached the Mittelland … About 24,000 years ago, during the peak of the last gla- cial period (the Würm ice age) most of Switzerland and thus all of Valais resembled a freezer, which had not been defrosted for too long: the Fiescher glacier, the Great Aletsch glacier and the Rhone glacier formed an impressive ice shield. Strengthened and pushed by the ice streams from the Valais side valleys, the glacier’s ends reached to today’s Solothurn and the southern part of this huge ice field even advanced as far as Lyon.

  • Tourism Research and Landscape Interpretation = Tourismusforschung Und Landschaftsinterpretation
    The central task of tourism research is to advocate for sustainability. In order to do justice to the Werner Kreisel, Tobias Reeh (Eds./Hg.) various components relating to tourism, such as aspects of the natural and cultural landscape as well as the economic, sociocultural and political situation, an integrative approach is necessary. The “landscape” is the foundation of tourism. Landscapes have their own value, a value that visitors Tourism Research and Landscape Interpretation and even locals are often not conscious of. “Landscape interpretation” and “heritage interpretation” attempt to remedy this defi cit by defi ning, vividly presenting and “staging” the essential aspects of a landscape. This makes it possible to enhance awareness of the value of a landscape and its need to Tourismusforschung und Landschaftsinterpretation be protected, thereby achieving a positive change in the behaviour of visitors. The present volume introduces various initiatives, which illustrate the importance of landscape interpretation for tourism ZELTForum – Göttinger Schriften zu research. Landschaftsinterpretation und Tourismus – Band 10 Die zentrale Aufgabe der Tourismusforschung ist es, Advokat der Nachhaltigkeit zu sein. Um den verschiedenen den Tourismus betreffenden Komponenten, also den natur- und kulturlandschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen, sozio-kulturellen und politischen Aspekten Rechnung tragen zu können, ist ein integrativer Ansatz nötig. Die „Landschaft“ stellt die Grundlage des Tourismus dar. Landschaften haben ihren eigenen Wert, dessen sich die Besucher, aber auch die Bewohner häufi g nicht bewusst sind. Diesem Defi zit versucht die „Landschaftsinterpretation“ abzuhelfen, indem sie die wesentlichen landschaftlichen Aspekte defi niert, anschaulich vorstellt und inszeniert. Dadurch kann das Bewusstsein für den Wert einer Landschaft und ihre Schutzwürdigkeit gesteigert und das Verhalten der Besucher positiv verändert werden.
