Pointe de la Plaine Morte, Mountain summit in Bern, Switzerland
The Pointe de la Plaine Morte reaches 2,927 meters in elevation and stands prominently in the Bernese Alps between the cantons of Bern and Valais.
Since 2014, MeteoSwiss has operated a radar installation at the summit, contributing to weather monitoring and research across the Swiss Alps region.
The mountain forms part of the Crans-Montana ski area, where winter sports enthusiasts gather for recreational activities throughout the snowy season.
A cable car system from Les Violettes reaches the upper station at 2,882 meters, requiring only a brief walk to access the mountain summit.
The summit provides views of the Plaine Morte Glacier, which covers 7.88 square kilometers and feeds two different river systems: the Rhine and Rhône.
