Becchi della Tribolazione

The Becchi della Tribolazione consists of four distinct granite peaks within the Graian Alps, with the southern peak reaching 3,360 meters in elevation.

The first ascent of the southern peak occurred on June 14, 1875, when mountaineers L. Vaccarone, A. Castagneri, and A. Boggiatto reached its summit.

The mountain name translates to Peaks of Tribulation, referring to the challenging granite walls that attract climbers from across the Alpine regions.

Access to the mountain begins at Teleccio Lake through Piantonetto Valley, with Rifugio Pontese offering accommodation at 2,200 meters for multi-day expeditions.

The mountain formation includes an unnamed peak called La Sagoma between the central and southern summits, not marked on official maps.
