Scopi, Mountain peak in Lepontine Alps, Switzerland

The Scopi summit reaches an elevation of 3,190 meters and stands between the Swiss cantons of Ticino and Graubünden in the Lepontine Alps.

The mountain's strategic location led to the installation of the FLORAKO radar system and an air traffic control facility operated by the Swiss Army.

Local mountaineers maintain marked trails from Lai da Sontga Maria near Lukmanier Pass, preserving traditional Alpine climbing routes to the summit.

Climbers can access the mountain throughout the year, with no military restrictions despite the presence of technical installations at the peak.

A private cable car system connects the summit from the Lukmanier Pass road, serving the military installations rather than public transportation.
