Alpenglow refers to the phenomenon where mountains, typically at sunset or sunrise, are bathed in a warm, reddish or pinkish light. This effect occurs when the sun is just below the horizon, casting its rays onto the mountains. The light interacts with the atmosphere and the snow or rocky surfaces of the mountains, creating a beautiful visual display. Alpenglow is often most pronounced on the peaks and ridges, where the sunlight has a more direct angle.
