Signalhorn

The Signalhorn reaches an elevation of 3,207 meters, positioned between Vorarlberg in Austria and Grisons in Switzerland, featuring steep rock formations and glacial terrain.

The mountain served as a navigational reference point during the development of trade routes between Austria and Switzerland throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.

Local mountain communities in both Switzerland and Austria maintain traditional festivals at the base of Signalhorn to mark the start of summer hiking seasons.

Climbers access Signalhorn through three main routes from Zernez, Klosters, or Gaschurn, with the summer months offering the most favorable climbing conditions.

The summit marks a triple border point where two countries and three municipalities converge, creating distinct jurisdictional characteristics for mountaineering activities.
