Location in Switzerland

The Hahnenmoss Pass (German: Hahnenmoospass) is a high mountain pass in Switzerland, connecting Lenk im Simmental to Adelboden in the Bernese Oberland. With an elevation of 1,950 metres above sea level, the Hahnenmoos Pass is the lowest pass between the upper Simmental (west) and the Engstligental (east).

Although a road leads to the pass from Adelboden, the pass can not be traversed by car. The pass forms part of the Alpine Pass Route, a long-distance hiking trail across Switzerland. In winter the pass is part of a ski area.
