Moron, Mountain summit in Bern, Switzerland

Moron is a mountain summit in the Jura Mountains standing at 1,337 meters with a prominence of 393 meters above the surrounding terrain. Multiple marked trails lead upward from neighboring villages to reach the peak.

The mountain has served as a geographical landmark since medieval times for people traveling through the region. Its location made it an important feature in the landscape of the Jura mountain passages.

The 30-metre observation tower east of the summit was designed by Swiss architect Mario Botta. It stands on the ridge above Malleray, and its form is the work of a designer known for brick-built structures such as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

The trails are well marked and accessible from several villages, with the Chemin des Skieurs usable in both winter and summer seasons. The ascent takes several hours in good conditions and is manageable for most hikers.

On clear days the summit offers views reaching all the way to the Black Forest in Germany, extending far beyond typical mountain vistas. This long-distance sight often surprises visitors with its reach.
