Piz Starlex, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland

Piz Starlex is a mountain summit in the Sesvenna Range that marks the border between Switzerland and Italy. The peak rises above 3,000 meters and forms part of the dramatic ridge separating these two Alpine regions.

The summit has served as a natural border marker between Switzerland and Italy since modern Alpine boundaries were established. International agreements recognized the geographical position of the peak as a practical dividing line between the two nations.

Local mountaineering groups maintain several hiking paths around Piz Starlex, connecting Swiss and Italian communities through shared outdoor activities.

The summit can be reached via multiple hiking routes that connect through Alpine passes in the region. Visitors should prepare for changing mountain conditions and select their path based on season and experience level.

The peak stands out from neighboring ridges due to its prominence and creates a distinctive profile when viewed from the valleys below. This visual prominence makes it a notable landmark for hikers exploring both the Swiss and Italian sides of the Sesvenna.
