Piz Uccello, Mountain summit in Lepontine Alps, Switzerland.
Located between Ticino and Graubünden cantons, Piz Uccello rises to 3218 meters with the Paradies Glacier covering its northern slopes.
Mountaineers first documented their ascent of Piz Uccello in the late nineteenth century, establishing it as a significant alpine climbing destination.
The mountain carries three names across languages: Piz Uccello in Romansh, Vogelhorn in German, and Pizzo Uccello in Italian.
Climbers access the summit via the Passo dei Cadabi at 2915 meters, requiring proper alpine equipment and experience for safe ascent.
The mountain exhibits distinct geographical features, with glaciated northern faces contrasting sharply against its steep, glacier-free southern slopes.
