The Palü Glacier, known in Romansh as Vadret da Palü, is a glacier on the southeastern flank of Piz Palü in the Bernina Range of Graubünden, Switzerland, in the Poschiavo valley. It measured 3.5 kilometers long in 2005, down from 6.47 square kilometers in area in 1973, and its retreat has left a proglacial lake at about 2,322 meters elevation above the older Lago Palü, both reachable from the Alp Grüm station on the Bernina railway line.
