Tschingellochtighorn, Limestone summit in Berner Oberland, Switzerland

The Tschingellochtighorn features four distinct towers rising above Engstligenalp, with the main summit reaching an elevation of 2735 meters.

In 1903, mountaineers Dr. Panchaud, J. Martin, and A. & G. Müller completed the first recorded ascent of the Tschingellochtighorn peak.

Local mountaineers maintain detailed route documentation of the Tschingellochtighorn's climbing paths, sharing technical information through alpine climbing communities.

Climbers access the mountain via tram from Adelboden to Engstligenalp, followed by a direct hiking approach that requires one to two hours.

The north tower's accessibility changed permanently after an earthquake in 1946, making it one of the least frequented sections of the mountain.
