Piz Boval, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland
Piz Boval rises to 3,353 meters in elevation within the Bernina Range, forming a natural boundary between Val Roseg and the Morteratsch Glacier valley.
The mountain gained recognition through documented climbing expeditions that established multiple routes to its summit, contributing to Swiss mountaineering development.

The Chamanna da Boval mountain hut, positioned 1,770 meters east of the peak, provides essential shelter and starting points for mountaineering activities.
