Mountaineering

Piz Lad (2,808 m) lies above Resia in the border triangle of Italy, Austria, and Switzerland and is the northernmost mountain in South Tyrol. A beautiful summit cross stands on its summit, offering impressive views over the Upper Vinschgau Valley, Lake Resia with the church tower of Graun, as well as across to the Ötztal Alps, the Ortler region, and the Engadin Mountains. The summit is accessible via marked trails and is considered a worthwhile, but not too difficult, hiking destination with magnificent panoramas of three countries.
Ibex are often encountered up here.
