The Bietschhorn (3,934 m) is a mountain in the canton of Wallis, located south of the Bernese Alps in Switzerland. Its northeast and southern slopes are part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Jungfrau-Aletsch Protected Area, which includes the Jungfrau and the Aletsch Glacier. Situated on the south side of the Lötschental valley, it forms part of the UNESCO region at the north end of the Bietschtal and Baltschiedertal valleys. Climbers typically start from the Bietschhornhütte or the Baltschiederklause. The mountain was first climbed on August 13, 1859, by Leslie Stephen and guides Anton Siegen, Johann Siegen, and Joseph Ebener.
