Seehorn, Alpine summit in Salzburg Region, Austria
Seehorn is an Alpine summit in the Salzburg Region that reaches 2439 meters in elevation. The mountain stands out with its distinctive steep rock faces and overlooks the surrounding valleys and mountain ranges.
The summit formed through tectonic movements during the Alpine mountain building process millions of years ago. These geological processes created the steep rock faces and distinctive ridge patterns that define its appearance today.
Local mountaineering clubs maintain several marked trails to the Seehorn summit, contributing to the preservation of Alpine hiking traditions.
Several marked hiking paths lead to the summit from various starting points in the area. Spring and summer offer the best conditions for the climb, though the route demands vary depending on weather and snow cover.
The rocks of Seehorn are made of limestone and dolomite, which creates the characteristic angular rock formations. This composition sets it apart visibly from many neighboring mountains in the region.
