Description

Wikipedia

The Corno Rosso (Walser language: Rothore) is a mountain of the Pennine Alps, in northwestern Italy, with an elevation of 3,023 metres (9,918 ft). Part of the Monte Rosa massif, it is located on the border between the municipalities of Alagna Valsesia, Piedmont, and Gressoney-La-Trinité, Aosta Valley, on the drainage divide between the Valle del Lys and the Valsesia. The Passo Zube, to its south, divides it from the Punta Straling; the Col d'Olen, to its north, divides it from the Corno del Camoscio. The peak can be reached with a scramble from Passo Zube, or, with greater difficulty, from Col d'Olen.
