Reeti, Mountain summit in Bernese Alps, Switzerland
Reeti is a mountain peak in the Bernese Alps that rises to 2757 meters above sea level. The route to the summit crosses rocky terrain and provides views across the surrounding alpine landscape.
The peak was documented in Swiss cartography during the 1800s and served as a reference point for surveying the Bernese Alps. These precise measurements contributed greatly to understanding the region's topography.
Local mountaineering groups gather annually at Reeti to teach traditional Alpine climbing techniques to new generations of Swiss mountain enthusiasts.
The climb requires several hours of walking and is best accessed via the cable car from the First area near Grindelwald. The best season to visit is from June through September when conditions are most favorable.
Reeti forms a striking pair with nearby Simelihorn, connected by a low saddle that creates a distinctive profile visible across the mountain range. This pairing makes both peaks popular with experienced mountaineers who climb them together in a single outing.
