The Tsanfleuron Glacier is a valley glacier in the western Bernese Alps, spanning the cantons of Valais and Vaud in Switzerland. As of 2005 it measured 3.5 kilometers long, down from an area of 3.81 square kilometers in 1973, and it culminates at the Dome at roughly 3,000 meters above sea level, where it meets the Diablerets Glacier. Its lowest point sits at about 2,500 meters, and it is overlooked by the Scex Rouge and the Oldenhorn to the north and the Quille du Diable to the south.
