Punta Scais

Punta Scais is an Alpine summit in the Bergamo Alps with steep rock faces dominating its appearance. The peak stands out through its rocky formations and dramatic slopes that define the mountain range.

The mountain formed through tectonic movements millions of years ago during the Alps creation. These geological processes shaped the steep rock formations visible today.

Local mountaineering groups maintain records of ascents to Punta Scais, documenting climbing achievements and seasonal weather patterns throughout generations.

Climbing the peak requires technical skills and proper equipment for steep terrain. Access routes begin from valleys in northern Lombardy and suit different experience levels.

A mountain shelter called Bivacco Corti sits to the northeast of the peak and offers climbers a refuge. This facility serves as a valuable stopping point for multi-day expeditions in the region.
