The Rhône Glacier flows at around 30 to 40 m (100 to 130 ft) per year from snow fields high in the Urner Alps to a point where melt water forms a small lake below the Furka Pass in Valais canton, Switzerland. From here, at an altitude of about 2,208 m (7,244 ft), a steady stream tumbles into the valley basin far below to start its 813 km (505 mi) journey, as the River Rhône, through southern France to the Camargue delta, where it flows into the Mediterranean.

Climate scientists blame global warming for the retreating Rhône Glacier, source of the River Rhône, now melting in summer below the Furka Pass in Valais canton, Switzerland, at an altitude of about 2,208 m (7,244 ft). In 1850, a tongue of ice extended well down the side of the mountain before melting in the valley below. The glacier flows for 7.65 km (4.75 mi) from high Urner Alps snow fields at about 30 to 40 m (100 to 130 ft) per year. The torrent flowing from the melt water lake begins the river’s 813 km (505 mi) journey through southern France to the Mediterranean.
