Jaufenspitze, Mountain summit in St. Leonhard in Passeier, Italy.
The Punta di Monte Giovo summit rises to 2,481 meters within the Sarntal Alps, forming a natural border between the Stubai and Sarentine mountain ranges.
The mountain paths around Punta di Monte Giovo served as essential trade routes connecting the Passiria Valley with the upper Isarco Valley throughout centuries.
The mountain reflects the dual heritage of South Tyrol through its Italian name Punta di Monte Giovo and German name Jaufenspitze, used by local communities.
Climbers can reach the summit through path number 17, which starts at Passo di Monte Giovo and includes a short via ferrata section requiring safety equipment.
The mountain features a distinct pyramid shape and contains multiple secured climbing sections that lead to a plateau called Jaufenscharte at 2,093 meters.
