Spechhorn, Alpine summit in Valais and Piedmont, Switzerland and Italy
The Pizzo d'Antigine reaches an elevation of 3,189 meters, featuring steep rock faces and defined ridges that separate the Anzasca and Saas valleys.
The mountain has served as a natural border marker between Switzerland and Italy, contributing to the territorial boundaries established through Alpine geography.
Local communities in both Valais and Piedmont maintain traditional mountain practices, including seasonal cattle grazing and Alpine cheese production near the mountain base.
Multiple marked trails lead to the summit from both the Swiss and Italian sides, with recommended climbing periods between July and September.
The mountain displays distinct geological formations on its northern and southern faces, reflecting the different tectonic processes of the Pennine Alps.
