Piz Badile

Piz Badile (3,308 m) is a mountain of the Bregaglia range in the Swiss canton of Graubünden and the Italian region of Lombardy. The border between the two countries runs along the summit ridge. Its north-east face, overlooking the Swiss Val Bregaglia near Soglio, is considered one of the six great north faces of the Alps. The name Badile means spade or shovel (arising from the mountain's appearance when viewed from the Val Bregaglia). * View from above Soglio of the Sciora peaks (left), Piz Cengalo (left centre) and Piz Badile (centre) * Piz Badile from the Val Bondasca *
