The Zinggenstöcke are a group of mountains, including the Vordere Zinggenstock (2915 m), the Hintere Zinggenstock (3040 m), and the Desorstock (2871 m), at the end of the ridge dividing the basins of the Oberaar glacier to the south and the Unteraar glacier to the north.
Minerals are found in clefts in Central Aare granite and intercalations of basic rocks. The area is famous for large superb rock crystals.
Note: "Zinkenstöcke" (singular "Zinkenstock") is an obsolete spelling.
