Jägerhorn

Jägerhorn is a mountain summit on the border between Switzerland and Italy, rising to approximately 3970 meters (13,025 feet) above sea level. The peak features granite rock formations and steep sides marked by snow fields and ice slopes.

The peak was first explored by mountaineers in the late 1800s and gradually became a destination for alpine expeditions. It has since attracted experienced climbers seeking challenging granite routes and high-altitude routes.

Local communities in both Switzerland and Italy maintain stories and traditions about the mountain, with festivals celebrating the natural environment of the Pennine Alps.

Reaching the summit requires mountaineering experience, specialized gear such as ice axes and crampons, and familiarity with rope climbing techniques. Good weather and stable snow conditions are important factors for a safe climb.

From the summit, you can see both the Matterhorn and the Monte Rosa massif on clear days. This view connects three of the Alps' major mountain regions in a single perspective.
