Piz Plavna Dadaint, Alpine summit in Grisons, Switzerland
Piz Plavna Dadaint is a 3,167-meter summit located in the Sesvenna Range between Val Sampuoir and Val Plavna in the Grisons Alps. The peak features steep rocky sections alternating with open grass ridges that offer exposure to the surrounding terrain.
Piz Plavna Dadaint sits within the Swiss National Park, established in 1914 to protect the Alpine landscape of Grisons. The mountain has remained under nature preservation rules since that time.
Local mountaineers maintain traditional climbing routes that connect this peak with neighboring summits, preserving centuries-old Alpine crossing patterns.
Climbing here requires advanced mountaineering experience and route-finding skills in challenging terrain. Access is possible from several directions via established paths, but ascents are only safe during stable weather with proper equipment.
The mountain is shaped by glacier-free high meadows that resemble pastures more than the icy peaks of higher Alps. This open terrain creates unusually clear sightlines across the surrounding valleys at this elevation.
