Niederhorn, Mountain summit in Bern, Switzerland
The Niederhorn reaches an elevation of 1963 meters and stands as the westernmost peak of the Güggis ridge in the Emmental Alps region.
The construction of the aerial cable car to the summit in 1946 marked the beginning of increased accessibility, followed by the addition of a restaurant.
The mountain area maintains a natural sanctuary where local residents observe the seasonal migrations and behaviors of red deer in the Justistal valley.
Visitors can reach the summit through the Seilbahnen Beatenberg-Niederhorn gondola lift, which connects to the Thunersee-Beatenberg funicular from Beatenberg station.
A population of ibex, established with three bucks in 1949, has grown to approximately 75-100 animals that roam the mountain slopes.
