Piz di Sassiglion, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland and Italy
Piz di Sassiglion rises to 2,855 meters above sea level, marking the border between Switzerland and Italy in the Livigno Alps mountain range.
The mountain has served as a natural boundary between Switzerland and Italy, with the Passo di Malghera pass at 2,542 meters acting as a crossing point.
The name Piz di Sassiglion reflects the multilingual heritage of the Grisons region, where Romansh, German, and Italian influences merge in local toponyms.
Hikers accessing Piz di Sassiglion from either the Swiss Poschiavo side or the Italian Val Grosina require proper alpine equipment and weather monitoring.
The mountain stands as the highest point south of Passo di Malghera, with a prominence of 313 meters from its parent peak, Cima Viola.
