Monte Disgrazia, Mountain summit in Province of Sondrio, Italy.

Monte Disgrazia rises to 3,678 meters in the Bregaglia range of the Italian Alps, featuring five glaciers and five distinct mountain ridges.

Leslie Stephen, E.S. Kennedy, Thomas Cox, and guide Melchior Anderegg completed the first ascent on August 23, 1862 through the Preda Rossa glacier.

The name originates from the Lombard dialect term 'Des'giaca', meaning defrost, referring to the substantial snow melting during summer months.

The standard climbing route starts at the Preda Rossa glacier and follows the northwest ridge, requiring technical skills and proper mountaineering equipment.

The mountain contains five separate glaciers within its territory, making it a significant location for studying glacial formations in the Italian Alps.
