List of mountains of Ticino

View towards the Rheinwaldhorn

This is a list of mountains of the Swiss canton of Ticino. Ticino is a very mountainous canton and lies almost entirely within the Alps. It is also one of the nine cantons having summits above 3,000 metres. Topographically, the two most important summits of the canton are those of the Rheinwaldhorn (most elevated and isolated) and Monte Tamaro (most prominent).

This list only includes significant summits with a topographic prominence of at least 150 metres (492 ft). There are over 140 such summits in Ticino and they are found in all its 8 districts.[1] All mountain heights and prominences on the list are from the largest-scale maps available.[2]
