Zufallspitzen

Cevedale II, also known as Südliche Zufallspitze, is a summit in the Ortler Alps standing at approximately 3,757 meters (12,326 feet). The mountain features rocky formations and scree slopes with steep sections that demand technical climbing skills, located at the head of the Martell Valley.

The mountain held strategic importance during World War I, when soldiers were stationed at extreme altitude in harsh conditions. Remnants of military structures and fortifications from that period are still visible on the mountainside today.

The summit is part of local mountain culture, where climbers view the rough terrain and steep slopes as a test of their skills. Local guides from the valley pass down knowledge about safe routes and how to move across the peaks.

The ascent begins from Marteller Hütte via marked trails that become increasingly steep as you approach the summit. Climbing equipment such as ropes and carabiners is essential, and the climbing season runs from June through September.

The Fünklegrat route connects this peak to neighboring Monte Cevedale through technically demanding sections. This climbing link is used by experienced mountaineers and opens up views across the surrounding summits.
