More Info:

The Lower Grindelwald Glacier (German: Unterer Grindelwaldgletscher), also known as the \"Lower Grindelwald Glacier\", is a glacier in the Bernese Alps, located southeast of Grindelwald, in the canton of Bern (Switzerland). It originates under the Agassizhorn and the Strahlegghorn and is connected to the Unteraar glacier via the Finsteraarjoch (3,283 m). The Lower Grindelwald Glacier should not be confused with the Upper Grindelwald Glacier, located in the northeast.

The Lower Grindelwald Glacier still has a major tributary, the Ischmeer (\"Sea of Ice\" in Swiss German, formerly known as the \"Grindelwald-Fiescher Glacier\", which is the glacier overlooked by the Eismeer station of the Jungfrau Railway.

The Lower Grindelwald Glacier was 8.3 km long and covered an area of 20.8 km2 in 1973. It has shrunk considerably since then, being only 6.2 km long in 2015, with the 1.9 km retreat having mainly occurred since 2007. (ref. wikipedia)
