Mittaggüpfi

The Mittaggüpfi peak rises to 1917 meters above sea level, featuring steep slopes and numerous hiking paths through the alpine terrain.

The mountain became a documented climbing destination during the expansion of Swiss tourism in the 19th century, attracting mountaineers from across Europe.

Local mountain guides maintain traditional route markers and share knowledge of weather patterns specific to Mittaggüpfi with visiting climbers.

Hikers can access the summit through three main trailheads at Schybach, Gantersei, and Eigenthal, with each route requiring approximately four hours of climbing.
