Stockhorn, Mountain summit in Bern, Switzerland

The Stockhorn rises to 2,190 meters in elevation, offering views of Lake Thun, the Bernese Alps, and the surrounding mountain ranges including Eiger and Jungfrau.

The installation of the first cable car system in 1933 marked a significant transformation in accessibility, enabling more visitors to reach the mountain peak from Erlenbach.

The mountain region maintains Swiss traditions through regular events where local residents present regional foods and mountain crafts to visitors throughout seasons.

Two cable cars transport visitors from Erlenbach im Simmental to the summit, where a restaurant serves meals and provides information about hiking routes.

Two lakes beneath the summit, Oberstockensee and Hinterstockensee, connect through an underground water system at different elevations of 1,650 and 1,550 meters.
