🏔️ Lysjoch

The Lysjoch is a very high pass at 4,151 metres (13,619 ft) in the Alps between Italy and Switzerland. It is located east of the Lyskamm and west of the Ludwigshöhe, a subsidiary summit of Monte Rosa, and makes up the watershed between the Gorner Glacier and the Lys Glacier. Just west of the pass is the Entdeckungsfels, a rock emerging from the ice. The pass connects the valleys of Zermatt on the north side to the valley of Gressoney on the south side.
