Cambrena Glacier, Alpine glacier in Grisons, Switzerland
The Cambrena Glacier stretches for 1.9 kilometers across the Bernina mountain range, forming an extensive ice field near Bernina Pass at high altitude.
Scientific measurements since 1973 have documented the glacier's surface area of 1.82 square kilometers, revealing continuous changes in ice mass over decades.
The glacier holds central importance in Swiss mountain traditions, drawing mountaineers and researchers who study its formations throughout the seasons.
Visitors can reach the glacier viewing points through marked paths from Bernina Pass, with summer offering the most favorable conditions for observation.
