Weißwandspitze, Alpine summit in South Tyrol, Italy.
The Weißwandspitze stands at 3,017 meters elevation, featuring a triangular wall of white dolomite rock above dark volcanic formations in the Stubai Alps.
In 1882, mountaineer J. Proch completed the first recorded ascent of Weißwandspitze, establishing its significance within the alpine climbing community.
The mountain name reflects the regional linguistic diversity, known as Weißwandspitze in German and Parete Bianca in Italian, representing South Tyrol's dual heritage.
The summit trek requires a 17-kilometer route from Weiler Stein car park, involving 1,678 meters of elevation gain through steep rocky sections with ropes.
The mountain displays a geological contrast between its white dolomite upper section and dark volcanic base, creating a natural two-toned appearance.
