Piz Lagrev, Mountain summit in Albula Alps, Switzerland

Piz Lagrev is a 3,165-metre summit in the Albula Alps, the highest point of the range between the Septimer and Julier passes. Its north-east side holds the small Vadret Lagrev glacier, and its slopes drop towards Lake Sils. The summit ridge connects a north-east peak of 3,109 metres and a south peak of 3,083 metres.

The first recorded ascent took place on October 9, 1875, when climbers L. Held and Moritz Arpagaus reached the summit. This early climbing achievement marked the beginning of modern alpine exploration in this region.

This summit sits where three ancient mountain passes historically connected different valleys and trading routes. These passages shaped how people have moved through and understood this region for generations.

Routes require solid mountaineering experience, glacier knowledge, and proper alpine equipment. Summer and early autumn offer the most stable conditions for attempting the ascent.

The summit ridge carries the border between Surses and Sils, and the Silvaplana boundary lies just 720 metres northeast of the top. From the summit the farthest visible point is the Guglia di San Bernolfo in Italy's Cuneo province, 324 km away.
