Cima della Bondasca, Mountain summit between Grisons, Switzerland and Province of Sondrio, Italy.
Cima della Bondasca is a 3,289-meter (10,790-foot) peak in the Bregaglia Range positioned directly on the Swiss-Italian border. The mountain features steep rock faces and is surrounded by deep valleys that give it a striking profile.
This peak has long marked the natural boundary between regions and served as a key reference point for Alpine surveying and mapping. Climbers began exploring the area in earnest during the 1800s when mountaineering developed as a sport.
The mountain serves as a gathering point for climbers who seek challenging routes in this remote Alpine region. People from nearby valleys have long used these peaks as part of their mountain heritage and outdoor traditions.
The approach requires solid climbing skills and Alpine experience due to the technical nature of the route. A nearby shelter provides accommodation for those planning a full day of climbing and descent.
At this summit, three river valleys meet at a natural triangle point where water flows in different directions toward separate regions. This geographic feature makes it a rare point of hydrological interest in the Alps.
