The Lötschen valley (Lötschental) is a 27-km-long north side valley of the Rhône valley, cut in the westernmost part of the Aare massif. According to Hopfner (1930) the name Lötschen could derive from the Celtic word "loudio", that means lead. Traces of mining activity dating back to the Bronze Age have been detected at Rotenberg (see Goppenstein lead mine).
Its rock formations belong to the Aar Massif, of which it more or less represents the western end. Granite only occurs at higher elevations in the southeastern part of the valley, whereas its northern and western parts are dominated by overlying schists. These rocks are surrounded by amphibolites, in which most of the minerals are found.
The Lötschental is the largest valley on the northern side of the Rhône valley in the canton of Valais in Switzerland. It lies in the Bernese Alps, with the Lonza running down the length of the valley from its source within the Langgletscher (lit.: Long Glacier).
The valley extends about 27 kilometers (17 mi) from the Lötschenlücke (3178 m) at the top of the Langgletscher to the mouth of the valley at Steg/Gampel (630 m). It is surrounded by 3,000 meter high mountains, including the Bietschhorn (3,934 m), the Hockenhorn (3,293 m), the Wilerhorn (3,307 m) and the Petersgrat (3,205 m). The Jungfrau-Aletsch Protected Area is the most glaciated area in the Swiss Alps, and was declared a Natural World Heritage Site by decision of UNESCO on December 13, 2001, along with southern and eastern parts of the Lötschental.
The main villages/municipalities of the Lötschental are Wiler and Kippel. Other villages/municipalities in the valley include Ferden and Blatten.
