Description

The Bergführerdenkmal is a monument in St. Niklaus Dorf in the Swiss canton of Valais. It was erected in 1995 by the association Zaniglaser Bergführerwesen in honor of

the pioneers of alpinism, who notably shaped the profession of mountain guiding globally through the first two generations. The mountain guides of St. Niklaus have completed more than 300 first ascents worldwide. No other municipality in the Alps has produced as many great mountain guides as St. Niklaus in the Mattertal, which developed into the center of mountain guiding.
