Gross Seehorn, Mountain peak on Austrian-Swiss border, Silvretta Alps
The Gross Seehorn rises to 3,121 meters, with steep rock faces on each side and two pronounced ridges marking the border between Switzerland and Austria.
The mountain's customs hut, positioned at a high saddle, represents centuries of cross-border activities between Austrian and Swiss territories in the Silvretta region.
The mountain name varies between Austrian German 'Großes Seehorn' and Swiss German 'Gross Seehorn', reflecting regional linguistic differences while maintaining identical pronunciation.
Climbers access the summit via the southwest face, encountering technical sections rated UIAA grade II, with fixed bolts providing additional security measures.
The Gross Seehorn stands as the westernmost 3,000-meter peak in Austria, featuring the Litzner Glacier on its northeast face and connecting ridges to Gross Litzner.
