The '''Sernftal''' or ''Kleintal'' is an [[Glarus Alps|alpine]] valley within [[Glarus Süd]], in the [[canton of Glarus]], [[Switzerland]]. It is formed by the '''Sernf''', a right tributary of the [[Linth]]. Situated in the Sernftal are the villages of [[Elm, Switzerland|Elm]] (977 m) and [[Engi, Switzerland|Engi]] (812 m). The [[Panix Pass]] at 2407 m connects the Sernftal with the [[anterior Rhine]] valley in [[Grisons]].

The word ''fünf'' "five" is the only genuinely German word with this ending, the others are early loanwords, including ''Hanf'' "hemp" (from ''kánnabis'') and ''Senf'' "mustard" (from ''sinapis''), and the toponym ''Genf'' "[[Geneva]]", from ''Genava''.
