Brunnistock, Alpine summit in Uri, Switzerland.
Brunnistock is a mountain in the Swiss Alps standing at 2,952 meters (9,682 feet) with steep slopes and rocky sections. The exposed terrain requires scrambling skills and careful footing to reach the summit.
Early mountaineers mapped climbing routes to the peak during the era of Alpine exploration. These pathways became part of the region's broader mountain-going tradition.
The mountain paths near Brunnistock connect multiple Swiss communities, forming an essential part of local outdoor recreation traditions.
The summit is best reached from Riedmatt near St. Jakob im Isenthal, where marked trails branch toward both the northern and southern approaches. The route demands stamina and experience on rocky alpine terrain.
The northern slopes retain snow longer into the season and offer winter climbing options, while the western flank faces fierce wind exposure. These contrasting conditions on the same peak make it quite different depending on when you climb.
