Piz Daint

Piz Daint rises to an elevation of 2968 meters in the Ortler Alps, forming a northern boundary of the Val Müstair region.

The mountain name comes from ancient Rhaetian language traditions, reflecting the geographical position at the inner part of Val Müstair valley.

Local shepherds have maintained traditional grazing practices on the mountain slopes, preserving centuries-old agricultural methods in the Swiss Alps.

Hikers can reach the summit by following the marked trail from Tschierv village, with the ascent taking approximately four hours through varied terrain.

The mountain shares its name with Switzerland's most powerful supercomputer, which processes complex climate and weather calculations for the entire Alpine region.
