Schwarzberghorn, Mountain summit in Pennine Alps, Switzerland.

The Schwarzberghorn rises to an elevation of 3,609 meters, marking the tripoint where Mattertal, Saastal, and Valle Anzasca valleys meet at the Swiss-Italian border.

The mountain stands as the southernmost point of the Mischabel-Strahlhorn chain, forming a natural boundary between Switzerland's Valais canton and Italy's Piedmont region.

The mountain carries two names reflecting the linguistic diversity of the region: Schwarzberghorn in German-speaking Switzerland and Corno Nero in Italian-speaking territories.

Climbers can access multiple routes to the summit from Saas-Almagell, with summer months providing optimal conditions for ascents and mountain activities.

The mountain features a prominence of 54 meters above its key col, which sits at 3,555 meters, offering views across Lake Mattmark and surrounding Alpine chains.
