Selbsanft, Mountain summit in Glarus Alps, Switzerland.

The Selbsanft mountain massif contains three main peaks, with the Hinter Selbsanft reaching an elevation of 3,028 meters in the Swiss Alps.

The formation of the Selbsanft occurred during the Alpine orogeny, when tectonic forces pushed ancient marine sediments upward to create this prominent limestone massif.

Local mountaineers from the Canton of Glarus maintain traditional climbing routes across the Selbsanft massif, preserving generations of alpine experience.

Access to Selbsanft requires technical climbing equipment and professional guidance, with the nearest base point located in the village of Linthal.

The massif features a small glacier on its eastern face, while its western side forms a natural barrier between the Sand valley and Limmernsee.
