Stecknadelhorn

The Stecknadelhorn (4,240 m) is a mountain in the Pennine Alps in Switzerland. It lies on the Nadelgrat, a high-level ridge running roughly north–south above the resort of Saas Fee to the east, and the Mattertal to the west.

It was first climbed by Oscar Eckenstein and Matthias Zurbriggen on 8 August 1887.

The Stecknadelhorn is part of the Mischabel range, which culminates at the Dom (4,546 m).
