The small Bächigletscher is located on the south side of the Hinterer Galmihorn (3488m) in the eastern Bernese Alps. It lies entirely on the ground of the canton of Valais. Its meltwater flows down the Bächitalbach into the Goms (high valley and municipality). The Bächitalbach flows into the Rotten (= upper course of the Rhone) near the village of Gluringen.
