Jakobshorn, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland.

The Jakobshorn peak rises to 2,590 meters within the Grison Alps, offering views across multiple valleys and snow-covered slopes throughout the winter season.

The installation of the first tow lift at Jakobshorn in 1934 marked the beginning of winter sports development in the Davos region.

The Clavadeleralp cheese dairy at 2,028 meters maintains traditional Swiss cheese-making methods and serves local mountain specialties to visitors.

A two-section cable car system connects Davos Platz to the summit, with an intermediate station at Jschalp providing access to multiple ski runs and hiking trails.

The mountain features the Alps Epic Trail, recognized as Switzerland's longest single-track route, attracting mountain bikers from spring through autumn.
