The
Agassizhorn is a mountain of the
Bernese Alps 
in
Switzerland 
. It lies just north-west of the
Finsteraarhorn 
, the main summit of the range. The Agassizhorn is the tripoint between the valleys of the
Lower Grindelwald Glacier 
, the Unteraar Glacier and the
Fiescher Glacier 
. Because the Lower Grindelwald and Unteraar glaciers drain into the Aar and hence the
Rhine 
and North Sea, whilst the Fiescher glacier drains into the Rhone and hence the Mediterranean Sea, the Sidelhorn lies on the European continental divide.
Administratively, the summit is shared between the municipalities of Grindelwald, to the north-west,
Guttannen 
, to the north-east, and
Fieschertal 
, to the south. Grindelwald and Guttannen are in the
Canton of Bern 
, whilst Fieschertal is in the canton of
Valais 
.
