Bös Fulen, Mountain summit in Glarus and Schwyz, Switzerland
Bös Fulen is a limestone summit in the Glarus Alps, located along the border between the cantons of Schwyz and Glarus at 2,801 meters. The peak forms part of the alpine ridge system that separates these two regions and defines the local mountain landscape.
The mountain has marked the natural boundary between Schwyz and Glarus since the cantons were established. This geographic position made it a historical landmark in the alpine region.
Many generations of Swiss mountaineers have developed technical climbing routes on Bös Fulen, establishing it as a reference point for alpine training.
The main access to the summit is via Braunwald, which serves as the starting point for routes to the peak. Several mountain huts in the area provide shelter and accommodation for multi-day alpine expeditions.
The mountain ranks as the twenty-fifth most prominent peak among 812 summits in the Glarus Alps, with a prominence of 368 meters.
