Bäderhorn, Mountain summit in Bern, Switzerland
Bäderhorn is a mountain summit in the Bernese Alps situated between the Jaun and Simmental valleys. The peak displays typical Alpine features with rocky ridges and meadows covering the lower slopes.
The summit served as a natural boundary marker between Alpine communities for centuries. During the 19th century it became fixed as part of Switzerland's official cantonal borders.
The mountain takes its name from historic thermal springs that once existed near its slopes. Today visitors experience this connection to the past while exploring the region.
The route is well marked and passes through meadows and Alpine pastures. No special equipment is needed, but sturdy footwear and layered clothing for changing mountain conditions will make your visit more comfortable.
From the summit, visitors can see distant Alpine peaks on clear days and understand the full topography of the region. This view explains why the location served as a natural reference point for navigation in the mountains.
