Güferhorn

The Güferhorn rises to 3,379 meters above sea level, featuring the Güfergletscher glacier extending 2 kilometers along its northern face.

The mountain served as a natural boundary marker between different valleys, influencing the development of trade routes through the Lepontine Alps region.

Local mountaineering traditions incorporate the Güferhorn as a training ground for Alpine climbing techniques and high-altitude navigation skills.

Climbers access the summit through designated routes from Vals valley, requiring advanced mountaineering equipment and experience in glacier traversal.

The eastern ridge of Güferhorn creates a natural division between Länta and Canaltal valleys, meeting at Zervreilasee lake south of Vals.
