Ewigschneehorn

Ewigschneehorn, Mountain summit in the Bernese Alps, Interlaken-Oberhasli, Switzerland

Ewigschneehorn is a 3,330-metre summit in the Bernese Alps, on the border between Innertkirchen and Guttannen. Its peak is a jagged crest of dark grey rock split by snow-filled gullies, with a narrow snow-covered shoulder on the left and a darker rocky ridge falling away on the right. Below, layered grey stone faces hold patches of snow, and the lower slopes are heavily glaciated and crevassed.

The mountain attracted climbers from the 19th century onward as alpine mountaineering developed in the Bernese Alps. Local communities in the region have long viewed high peaks as natural landmarks shaping their landscape.

The name Ewigschneehorn was coined during the 19th-century official survey of the Bernese Alps. Markus Lutz had called the peak Schneehorn in 1827 and later Schneewiges Horn, meaning a snow-covered horn; cartographers apparently confused schneewig with eternal snow, giving the official name. The summit's snow cap, visible into the 20th century, matched that reading.

Climbing this peak requires solid alpine experience, specialized gear, and knowledge of snow and ice conditions. Best climbing seasons are the summer months when snow-covered slopes are most manageable.

The Gauligletscher glacier sits nearby and displays the ongoing transformation of ice landscapes as glaciers slowly recede due to climate shifts. This gradual change is often overlooked by visitors but reshapes the region's appearance noticeably over time.
