Spitzige Lun, Mountain summit in Vinschgau Valley, Italy

The Spitzige Lun mountain rises 2324 meters above sea level, featuring dense forest slopes that lead to a peak offering panoramic views of the surrounding Alps.

The mountain's name derives from Piz Lun, meaning Mountain of the Moon, reflecting the centuries-old naming traditions of the South Tyrol region in northern Italy.

The mountain stands at the intersection of Italian, German, and Austrian influences, demonstrated by its dual naming convention: Spitzige Lun in German and Piz Lun in Italian.

Visitors can reach the summit through multiple starting points, including Mals, Planeil, and Matsch, with a bike shuttle service available to transport riders to 1500 meters elevation.

The ascent presents an elevation gain of 1200 meters from the town below, requiring cyclists to carry or push their bikes through 350 meters of the total 800-meter climb.

Elevation above the sea: 2,324 m

GPS coordinates: 46.70624,10.57736
