Piz Boval, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland

Piz Boval is a 3,353-metre summit in the Bernina Range of the eastern Alps, in Grisons, Switzerland. It stands on the ridge separating Val Roseg to the west from the Morteratsch Glacier valley to the east, and is surrounded by the Vadret da Misaun, Vadret da Tschierva and remnants of the Boval glaciers.

The area around Piz Boval was mapped and climbed during alpine exploration in the 1800s. These peaks became important to the development of climbing techniques and mountaineering knowledge in Switzerland.

The name Piz Boval comes from the Romansh language spoken in this region of Grisons. Local mountain names here reflect how communities have long connected with these high peaks.

A mountain hut called Chamanna da Boval offers lodging and supplies for climbers in the area. Reaching this summit requires alpine experience, proper equipment, and knowledge of climbing routes.

The farthest point visible from Piz Boval lies 157 km west on the north ridge of the Bietschhorn in Valais. The summit also marks the municipal boundary between Pontresina and Samedan, and the ridge running north to south above it carries the Fuorcla Misaun and Fuorcla da Boval saddles.
