Gumihorn, Mountain summit in Interlaken-Oberhasli, Switzerland
Gumihorn is a mountain summit reaching 2100 meters that forms a limestone tower at the western end of the Schwarzhorn group. It overlooks the Lütschine valley and stands as a distinct landmark in the surrounding alpine landscape.
The mountain has long served as a geographical boundary between the municipalities of Gsteigwiler and Gündlischwand in the canton of Bern. This role as a border marker shaped its importance in the region's geography for generations.
The peak is part of a network of marked trails that connect multiple summits across the region for hikers. The routes show how this alpine area has long been used for mountain exploration and outdoor activities.
Access to the area is best from Schynige Platte railway station, where marked trails branch toward nearby lower peaks. Visitors should wear proper hiking boots and bring weather protection, as alpine conditions can change quickly.
The peak ranks as the 65th most prominent summit among 567 peaks in the Interlaken-Oberhasli district. This high standing among local mountains makes it a noteworthy reference point for climbers exploring the region's range.
