Selbsanft


The Selbsanft is a large mountain massif in the Glarus Alps, overlooking the village of Linthal in the canton of Glarus, Switzerland. The mountain lies within the municipality of Glarus Süd.
The Selbsanft consists of several summits, of which the highest is named Hinderi Schibe. The massif is a buttress of the Bifertenstock and forms, along with the Schiben, the ridge that separates the valleys of the Sand and Limmernsee. A small glacier lies east of the summit.

Summits

The five main summits are, from north to south, the Vorder Selbsanft, also known as Hauserhorn, Mitttler Selbsanft, also known in Grisons as Plattas Alvas, the Hinter Selbsanft, the highest peak of the Selbsanft triplet. In a broader sense, the Vorderi Schibe and the Hinderi Schibe, the highest summit of this massif, are also part of the massif.
