The Ochsen (or Ochse) is a 2,188.4 metres high mountain in the Bernese Alps, overlooking Schwefelbergbad in the canton of Bern.This mountain will have both the joy of walkers (walk on required) and make-up artists.There is louigrat, the easiest path (T3, slightly exposed at the top: very steep rocky corridors). The duration is approximately 3 hours to assemble.There is also the path by the north ridge via Chli Ochsen (T4, subject: steep, rocky, slippery, but very pleasant)The north west wall is very impressive from below.

At the top there is relatively little space. There is a cross-shaped beef, and just before the summit, there is a memorial. The view is superb. (The highest mountain of the Gantrisch chain)
