Ferpècle is a dispersed settlement in the upper Val d'Hérens in Valais, Switzerland, upstream of Les Haudères, at between about 1,700 m and 1,800 m elevation, spanning a distance of about 5 km along the ''Borgne de Ferpècle'' stream. Like Les Haudères, it is part of Evolène municipality. Individual settlements of Ferpécle are ''Seppec, Pra Floric, Renoillin'' and '' Salay''. Ferpècle serves as starting-point for a number of alpinist excursions, including Ferpècle Glacier and Mont Miné Glacier. Until the 19th century, these two glaciers were still connected, reaching down to just above Salay (1,766 m). Since the later 19th century, the glacier has retreated and become separated into two non-contiguous parts, forming the two sources of the ''Borgne de Ferpècle''. At 1,880 m, a dam was built in 1964 to prevent inundations. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ferpècle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
