Description

Wikipedia

The Grignetta, also known as Grigna Meridionale, is a mountain of Lombardy, Italy, with an elevation of 2,184 metres (7,165 ft). It is located in the Orobic Alps, in the Grigna massif. It is located in the territory of Mandello del Lario, south of the Grigna and north of Pian dei Resinelli. It has four main ridges: Cresta Segantini to the west, Cresta Sinigaglia to the south-east, Cresta Cermenati to the south, and Cresta di Campione to the east; a fifth ridge, to the north, connects it to the Grigna. A rocky and rugged mountain, its many pinnacles have been a training ground for mountaineers such as Riccardo Cassin, Emilio Comici and Walter Bonatti. A small mountain shelter, Bivacco Ferrario, is located on its peak, whereas a mountain hut (Rifugio Rosalba) is located farther down, at the foot of Cresta Segantini. The peak can be reached through various hiking paths and climbing routes.
