Archeoalps Excursions 2026 - Beneath the Tresero Glacier: Europe’s highest rock engravings

Event details

Date iconAugust 21, 2026 Price iconFree

At the foot of Point of the Signal, you will discover the highest rock engravings in Europe.
Dating back to the Bronze Age (3,500 years ago), they add a new piece to the story of the ancient relationship between humans and mountains. These depictions of people, animals and spirals emerged due to the retreat
of the glacier, a consequence of climate change.
