Dent de Corjon

Dent de Corjon is a 1,967-meter summit in the Swiss Prealps, distinguished by its steep rock walls and multiple marked trails. The mountain offers passage through several passes and attracts hikers who seek technical challenges on Alpine terrain.

The summit has served as a natural boundary between the L'Hongrin valley and the Sarine since Swiss cantons were established. This mountain formation has shaped the region for centuries and remains a key landmark in the landscape.

Local mountaineering clubs organize regular expeditions to Dent de Corjon, maintaining the Swiss tradition of alpine sports and mountain appreciation.

Access is through the La Lécherette pass at 1,388 meters, from which several routes lead to the summit. Basic shelter at the CAS Diablerets Lausanne Chalet Lacombe provides protection and guidance for hikers.

The east face offers an unobstructed view of Chateau-d'Oex and displays a complete panorama of surrounding Alpine peaks. This vista is particularly valuable for photography and orientation, as it reveals the entire region at a glance.
