Silvretta Alps

The Silvretta Alps rise between Graubünden, Tyrol and Vorarlberg in the Central Eastern Alps. Many of their peaks stand above three thousand metres, surrounded by ice and snow. Glaciers give the range the name of the Blue Silvretta, while steep mountain slopes descend towards the valleys on either side. The high ridges separate the Alpine country of the Three Leagues from neighbouring lands to the north.
