The 'Niederhorn' (elevation 1950
metres) is a peak in the
Swiss Alps in the
Bernese Oberland near
Beatenberg. It is the peak furthest west in the
Güggis ridge. From its summit, you can see
Lake Thun and the entire
Bernese Alps.
An
aerial cable car to the summit was completed in 1946 with a restaurant and children's playground at the top. Today the summit can be reached by the
Seilbahnen Beatenberg-Niederhorn, a more modern
gondola lift that runs from the village of
Beatenberg, where it connects with the
Thunersee-Beatenberg Bahn, a
funicular with connections to the shipping services on Lake Thun.
