Testa Grigia

Testa Grigia (French : Tête grise, lit. "grey head") (3,479 m) is a rocky prominence above the Theodul Pass, located on the border between Italy (Aosta Valley) and Switzerland (Valais). It overlooks the Plateau Rosa section of the Theodul Glacier on its east side.

Ascent

The summit can be reached from Breuil-Cervinia and is the culminating point of the Italian part of the international ski area with Zermatt. A cross-border connection with the Klein Matterhorn (3,883 m) over the Theodul Glacier was completed in July 2023.
