Grand Muveran, Alpine summit in Bex, Switzerland
Grand Muveran reaches an elevation of 3,051 meters and stands as a dominant peak in the Bernese Alps between the Rhone knee and Pas de Cheville.
The mountain region has played a central role in Swiss mountaineering development, serving as a training ground for generations of alpine climbers since the 19th century.
The mountain area preserves traditional Swiss alpine practices, with local shepherds maintaining seasonal grazing patterns in the surrounding meadows during summer months.
Climbers access the summit via the Rambert Hut at 2,582 meters, which provides overnight accommodation and serves as a base for both summer hiking and winter mountaineering.
The mountain features a remarkable prominence of 1,013 meters and contains four distinct glaciated massifs within its geological structure.
