Piz Schumbraida, Alpine summit in Grisons, Switzerland and Italy

Piz Schumbraida is a 3,125-metre summit of the Ortler Alps, standing on the border between Italy and Switzerland, east of Piz Tea Fondada. Its Romansh name is also rendered in Italian as Monte Sumbraida. The mountain receives an average annual rainfall of about 1,386 mm.

Piz Schumbraida lies on the border between Italy and Switzerland, in the Ortler Alps, east of Piz Tea Fondada. The frontier follows the watershed of this part of the Rhaetian Alps, separating the Swiss canton of Grisons from the Italian province of Sondrio. The summit reaches 3,125 metres and receives an average annual rainfall of 1,386 millimetres.

The name is Romansh, the language of the Grisons: piz means "peak" and appears in many mountain names of the canton, such as Piz Tea Fondada to the west. The Italian name Monte Sumbraida is used on the Italian side of the border.

Piz Schumbraida lies on the Swiss-Italian border east of Piz Tea Fondada, in the Ortler Alps above the Grisons side. Approach routes exist from both the Swiss and Italian sides; the summit is a border point, so carry valid identification for either country. The peak reaches 3,125 meters, and the area receives about 1,386 mm of precipitation per year, so check conditions before setting out.

Piz Schumbraida lies just east of Piz Tea Fondada, and the two are separated by a saddle that keeps Schumbraida's prominence at 315 metres. Walkers on the border ridge can stand with one foot in Italy and one in Switzerland.
