Monte Cingla, Mountain summit in Brescia and Garda Prealps, Italy

Monte Cingla rises to 1669 meters above sea level, featuring two peaks of equal height separated by several dozen meters of dolomite rocky terrain.

In 1853, botanist Pietro Porta discovered the Daphne petraea Leybold species on Monte Cingla, marking a significant botanical finding in the Prealpi Bresciane region.

The mountain's name derives from the Latin word cingulum, meaning belt or girdle, reflecting the characteristic strip of land bordering the cliffs.

The ascent to Monte Cingla requires a three-hour hike from Moerna parking, with the trail rated T3 for experienced hikers seeking technical challenges.

A three-meter-high cross stands on the southwestern peak since 1989, placed there by climbers from the Società degli Alpinisti Tridentini of Bondone.

Elevation above the sea: 1,669 m

GPS coordinates: 45.78555,10.56711
