Wellhorn, Mountain summit in the Bernese Alps, Bern, Switzerland

The Wellhorn is a 3191 m summit in the Bernese Alps, rising south of the Reichenbachtal and west of the Rosenlaui Glacier, which lies on its eastern side. About 1 km northeast of the main summit stands the Klein Wellhorn at 2701 m. The summit point is where the municipal areas of Meiringen, Grindelwald, Innertkirchen and Schattenhalb meet.

The first ascent of the Wellhorn was made on 31 July 1866 by Edmund von Fellenberg with the guides Christen Michel and Peter Egger, via the east ridge. The summit, at 3191 m, is where the municipal boundaries of Meiringen, Grindelwald, Innertkirchen and Schattenhalb meet.
