Penser Weißhorn, Mountain summit in South Tyrol, Italy

The Penser Weißhorn stands at 2,705 meters in elevation, featuring multiple hiking trails that traverse through the northern section of the Sarentino Alps.

The first documented ascent of Penser Weißhorn, also known as Corno Bianco, occurred in 1822, establishing its place in South Tyrolean mountaineering history.

The mountain carries different names across languages, reflecting the multicultural heritage of South Tyrol: Corno Bianco in Italian and Penser Weißhorn in German.

Access to the mountain begins at several points, including Pennes Pass and Oberberg Valley, with the normal route starting from the 2,590-meter Giogo di Frane ridge.

The mountain forms part of the Horseshoe High Route, allowing hikers to complete a week-long traverse of the entire Sarentino Alps mountain range.
