Unul dintre puținii ghețari din Europa unde se putea schia și vara a rămas fără zăpadă

The Zermatt glacier has suspended summer skiing activities due to extreme temperatures and lack of snow, marking a critical year for Swiss glaciers. Researchers warn of significant ice loss as climate change accelerates. This is the first summer skiing suspension in years, with conditions deemed unsafe for skiing. The unusual heat has caused winter snow reserves to melt weeks early, exposing older ice that is now rapidly melting. If current weather patterns persist, 2026 could see historic ice losses for Swiss glaciers. Zermatt previously suspended summer skiing in July 2022 due to similar conditions.
