Piz Timun, Mountain summit in Oberhalbstein Range, Switzerland.

The Pizzo di Emet rises to 3,209 meters above sea level, marking the border between Switzerland and Italy in the Oberhalbstein Range.

The mountain received its dual naming system, Pizzo di Emet in Italian and Piz Timun in Romansh, reflecting the linguistic heritage of the Graubünden region.

Local mountaineering traditions center around the ascent of Pizzo di Emet, which stands as a symbol of Alpine achievement in the Western Rhaetian Alps.

Reaching the summit requires advanced mountaineering skills and proper equipment, with access through the T5-rated alpine trail from the Lago di Lei area.

The eastern face of the mountain creates a natural amphitheater overlooking the artificial Lago di Lei, forming a distinct geological formation in the region.
