The Lohner, also Gross Lohner (German: Great Lohner), is a limestone mountain range in the Swiss Bernese Oberland, which features several peaks, from east to west:

* "Chlyne Lohner" (Small Lohner), convert|2584|m|0|ft
* "Nünihorn", convert|2717|m|0|ft
* "Hinder Lohner" (Rear Lohner), convert|2929|m|0|ft
* "Mittler Lohner" (Central Lohner), convert|3002|m|0|ft
* "Vorder Lohner" (Fore Lohner) (southwestern summit), convert|3048.7|m|0|ft
* "Mittaghorn", convert|2678|m|0|ft

The Lohner range is located east of Adelboden in the Engstlige valley and southwest of Kandersteg in Kander valley.

The first tourist to climb the Lohner was one C. Dürheim from Berne in July 1876. In August of the same year, four members of the Alpine Club, during another ascent, found a bottle with the names of the two Kandersteg mountain guides Ogi and Hari, dated 1875.

Approximately halfways up the rock face, the Lohner hut can be found, which can be reached by skilled hikers without proper climbing.

The mountain with its many screes is almost only accessible by one of its three ridges. From the Lohner hut, the "Mittler Lohner" can be reached via the face by skilled climbers.
