Becca di Luseney, Mountain summit in Aosta Valley, Italy
Becca di Luseney is a summit in the Pennine Alps that rises to 3,504 meters. The peak displays a pyramidal form, and glacial ice covers much of its northern exposure.
The peak was first climbed in 1866 and became recognized as an important objective for mountaineers. Since then, it has remained a notable destination in the alpine climbing circuit.
A chapel stands at the former location of Chamain village to commemorate the four individuals who perished during the 1952 rockfall disaster.
Routes commonly start from Saint-Barthélemy valley and pass through the Reboulaz bivouac before reaching the top. Climbers need experience with glacier travel and alpine conditions to safely attempt this peak.
The mountain ranks fourteenth among 1,186 peaks in Aosta Valley, with a prominence of 646 meters and an isolation distance of 7.24 kilometers.
