Dreifingerspitze, Mountain summit in South Tyrol, Italy

Dreifingerspitze reaches 2479 meters in elevation and features three distinct towers that resemble fingers when viewed from the Olanger Basin valley.

The mountain's geological formation consists of soft limestone that has gradually degraded into sandstone-like material, affecting climbing conditions on its north face.

The peak lies within a multilingual region where German, Italian, and Ladin languages intersect, resulting in three different names for the mountain.

The primary climbing route starts at Furkelsattel, following marked trails through forested areas before branching southward toward the Dreifingerscharte at 2330 meters.

During summer, wooden fences have been installed along summit approaches to prevent grazing cattle from wandering into dangerous terrain sections.

Elevation above the sea: 2,479 m

GPS coordinates: 46.70928,11.99210
