Piz Bernina (4,049m)

The majestic and sophisticated Kings of the eastern Alps deliver a hard-fought duel to win the favour of alpinists. All manner of legends abound about the history-steeped Piz Palü (3,901m). But the Piz Bernina, standing tall at 4,049m, is - quite literally - the absolute highlight of the eastern Alps: it doesn't get any higher than this. Tackling this giant also requires stamina and skill, as well as the appropriate equipment, such as pick axe, crampons and ropes.
