Piz Glims, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland.

Piz Glims is a 2,868-metre summit in the Silvretta range, entirely within the municipality of Zernez in Grisons. It is a minor elevation on the south-southwest ridge of Piz Linard, separated from it by the Fuorcla da Glims pass. The Lai Glims lake (2,564 m) lies to the east, and the Chamonna Linard hut (2,327 m) stands south of the top.

The name Glims derives from Romansh glim, from Latin limen, meaning threshold. The peak lies entirely in the municipality of Zernez, and the Fuorcla da Glims pass to its northeast links it to the south-southeast ridge of Piz Linard. The Chamonna Linard hut below the summit at 2,327 m has long served as the usual starting point for the ascent.

The name Glims derives from Romansh glim, from Latin limen, meaning threshold. The mountain lies entirely in the municipality of Zernez in the Lower Engadine, whose valleys Glims and Val Sagliains flank it. The nearby Chamonna Linard hut at 2,327 m serves as the usual starting point for ascents.

The usual starting point is Chamonna Linard at 2,327 m, south of the summit, reached from the valley villages of Lavin and Susch. From the hut the south ridge leads to the top in about 1¼ to 1½ hours, rated T4. The path to Fuorcla da Glims is marked white-red-white; from the pass the summit is a short climb.

The name Glims derives from Romansh glim, from Latin limen, meaning threshold. The peak is not independent: it is a rise on the southwest ridge of Piz Linard, separated from it by the Fuorcla da Glims pass. The Lai Glims lake lies east of the summit at 2,564 m.
