Seekofel

Seekofel is a mountain summit in the Dolomites that rises sharply above Pragser Wildsee lake, with vertical limestone cliffs forming its northern face. The peak consists of solid rock formations that attract visitors interested in climbing and mountain exploration.

The mountain has been named by different communities over centuries, with each name reflecting their presence and influence in the Alpine region. This linguistic layering shows the cultural mixing that has shaped the area.

The mountain carries three names reflecting the linguistic diversity of the region: Seekofel in German, Croda del Becco in Italian, and Sas dla Porta in Ladinian. These names show how different communities have referred to the place across generations.

A mountain refuge nearby offers accommodation and facilities for those exploring the area, especially during the warmer months. The location is accessible for hikers and climbers seeking different levels of difficulty.

The south face is divided into separate climbing sectors by natural rock formations, each presenting different technical requirements. This natural division allows climbers of varying abilities to train simultaneously on the same mountain.
