It extends over a length of five kilometers in an east-west direction. The gorge is framed by the Zermatt Rothorn , the Stockhorn and the Gornergrat massif.
At the upper end of the Findelschlucht is Findelgletscher . On the northern side of the valley there are two small hamlets, Findeln and Gant . Both have only about 100 inhabitants and are cut off from the outside world in winter.
