Trugberg, Mountain summit in Bernese Alps, Switzerland
The Trugberg stands at 3,932 meters elevation in the Bernese Alps, positioned between the Jungfraufirn and Ewigschneefeld glaciers near the Konkordiaplatz.
The mountain received its name, meaning 'Deceitful Mountain', in 1841 when explorers Louis Agassiz and his team mistook it for the Jungfrau during their expedition.
The mountain's location within the UNESCO World Heritage Site Jungfrau-Aletsch reflects the geological and natural significance of the Swiss Alpine region.
The optimal climbing period extends from July through September, with access routes available through the eastern flank as established during the first ascent in 1871.
The mountain forms a natural barrier that creates two distinct supraglacial moraines on the Aletsch Glacier, influencing the flow patterns of Switzerland's largest glacier system.
