Fluchthorn, Alpine summit in Valais, Switzerland.

Fluchthorn is a 3795-metre summit in the Allalin Group at the head of the Saas Valley in Valais, Switzerland. It is a secondary peak of the Strahlhorn, rising on that mountain's north-east ridge, which continues over the Schwarzberg to the dam of the Mattmarksee. The Schwarzberg Glacier lies to the south-east of the ridge and the Allalin Glacier to the north-west.

The Fluchthorn is a 3795 m secondary summit on the northeast ridge of the Strahlhorn, in the Allalin group at the head of the Saas Valley. That ridge continues over the Schwarzberg to the dam of the Mattmarksee, with the Schwarzberggletscher to its southeast and the Allalingletscher to its northwest. In winter it is a popular ski tour, and the normal route leaves the Britanniahütte across the Allalingletscher toward the Adlerpass, reaching the summit southward at the height of the Allalinhorn.

The name Fluchthorn appears on the Swiss national map sheet 284S, the ski-touring map titled Mischabel, which places the peak in the Allalin group at the end of the Saas Valley rather than in the Mischabel range itself. In winter the mountain is a popular ski tour, and the normal route leaves the Britannia Hut across the Allalin Glacier toward the Adler Pass, turning south to the summit at the height of the Allalinhorn.

The normal route starts at the Britanniahütte and crosses the Allalingletscher toward the Adlerpass; at the height of the Allalinhorn you turn south to the summit. The Fluchthorn is a popular ski tour in winter. The Schwarzberggletscher lies southeast of the ridge, the Allalingletscher northwest.

Fluchthorn is a secondary summit of the Strahlhorn, rising on its northeast ridge; that ridge continues over the Schwarzberg to the dam of the Mattmarksee. The Schwarzberggletscher lies southeast of the ridge and the Allalingletscher northwest of it.
