    Ascent from the Hahnenmos pass is steep and beautiful and then the descent to the Engstligen Alp

      The Ammertenspitz is a panoramic, rarely visited peak above the Engstligenalp near Adelboden. The route is alpine but not technically difficult – ideal for sure-footed hikers in good shape.

      Route:
      Start at the Engstligenalp mountain station (1,962 m), continue over scree fields to the summit.


      Duration: Approx. 3–4.5 hours ascent, approximately 650 m elevation gain

      Return the same way or via the Ammerten Pass

      Highlights:
      ✅ Fantastic panorama of Wildstrubel, Lohner, Wildhorn, and into the Valais
      ✅ A secluded summit – often deserted
      ✅ Ideal as a half-day hike or summit destination from the Engstligenalp
