Punta Tersiva, Mountain summit in Aosta Valley, Italy

Punta Tersiva stands at 3,515 meters in elevation within the Graian Alps, forming a pyramid shape at the intersection of Grauson, Clavalité, and Urtier valleys.

The mountain's climbing history began in 1842, with early expeditions utilizing the Grauson camp before its destruction by fire led to the use of Sogno di Berdzé hut.

The mountain holds significance in the Gran Paradiso Massif, ranking as the 44th highest peak among 438 summits and the 5th most prominent in the region.

Mountaineers start their ascent from Lillaz at 1,617 meters, following Alta Via route 2 toward Colle Finestra di Champorcher for a 6.5-hour climbing experience.

The Tessonnet glacier sits at the base of the northwest wall, requiring climbers to traverse its surface before reaching the steeper slopes of Colletto della Tersiva.
