The Seehorn is a 2,321 m summit in the Berchtesgaden Alps, in the Pinzgau near the Salzburg–Bavaria border. It lies at the eastern end of the Weißbach valley, north of the Dießbach valley near Lofer, with the Seehornsee and Dießbach Reservoir below to the west. On the ridge west of the summit lies the Kallbrunnalm, one of the largest alps in the Berchtesgaden Alps.

The Seehorn is a popular hiking mountain, and a well-known ski tour also leads to its summit. Marked routes reach it from the Weißbach valley via the Kallbrunnalm, from the Dießbach reservoir, and over the Hochwies and Hochwiessattel, where it can be crossed easily from the Ingolstädter Haus. From the north, a marked path runs from the Wimbach valley past the west foot of the Palfelhorn to the Hochwiessattel.

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.
