The Fee Glacier, known in German as the Feegletscher, is a glacier in the Pennine Alps of Valais, Switzerland, descending the northeast flank of the Mischabel range between the peaks of Dom and Allalinhorn above the resort of Saas-Fee. As of 2005 it measured about 4.7 kilometers in length, down from 5.0 kilometers and 7.5 square kilometers in 1973, and it has retreated roughly 1,100 meters, about a quarter of its nineteenth-century extent, since systematic observation began in 1883. The glacier is accessible by cable car and doubles as a ski area.
