Roseg Glacier, Alpine glacier in Bernina Range, Switzerland.

The Roseg Glacier extends over 4 kilometers through the Val Roseg valley, reaching elevations of more than 3000 meters in the Bernina mountain range.

Records from geological surveys indicate the glacier has experienced continuous retreat since measurements began in 1850, reflecting broader climate patterns in the Swiss Alps.

The glacier holds the status of Ramsar Wetland site since 2005, contributing to Switzerland's environmental conservation efforts and scientific research programs.

Visitors can access the glacier through marked trails from Pontresina, with options for guided tours and winter sports activities between December and April.

The glacier features an extensive network of underground water channels that transport meltwater, creating a natural hydraulic system beneath the ice surface.
