Piz da Lech, Mountain summit in South Tyrol, Italy

The Piz da Lech reaches 2,913 meters in elevation and stands as part of the Sella group within the Dolomites mountain range of northern Italy.

The mountain belongs to the Dolomites, which formed during the Triassic period when the area was covered by a prehistoric sea over 200 million years ago.

Local mountaineers established multiple routes to reach the peak, including the Via Ferrata path that combines traditional climbing methods with metal cables for safety.

Visitors can access the mountain via cable car from Corvara to Vallon station at 2,537 meters, reducing the approach time to the Via Ferrata route.

The summit features two separate steel ladders connected by an exposed traverse across the rock face, creating a demanding climbing sequence for mountaineers.

Elevation above the sea: 2,913 m
