Sattelhorn, Alpine summit in Bernese Alps, Switzerland.
The Sattelhorn rises to 3745 meters between the Lang Glacier and Oberaletsch Glacier, featuring steep rock faces and snow-covered slopes.
Karl Schulz, Alexander Burgener, and J. Rittler completed the first documented ascent of Sattelhorn on August 26, 1883, establishing a new climbing route.
The mountain stands as a testament to Swiss Alpine mountaineering traditions, attracting climbers who document their experiences for future generations.
Climbers access Sattelhorn during the summer months from June through September, when weather conditions provide safer climbing opportunities.
The mountain's elevation of 3745 meters creates its own microclimate, affecting local weather patterns and glacial formations throughout the seasons.
