Bettmerhorn, Mountain summit in Valais, Switzerland.
The Bettmerhorn reaches an elevation of 2,857 meters and stands as a prominent peak in the Bernese Alps, north of the village of Bettmeralp.
The mountain became more accessible in the 20th century with the construction of the cable car system, connecting Betten station to the summit station.
The summit provides observation points of the Aletsch Glacier, recognized as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Jungfrau-Aletsch protected area.
Visitors can reach the summit through a combination of cable car rides from Betten station and a 30-minute vertical hike from the upper station.
From the mountain's viewpoint, observers can see the largest glacier in the Alps along with peaks such as Dom, Matterhorn, and Weisshorn.
