Gotthard-Area

... in progress.
The Saint-Gotthard Massif (German: Gotthardmassiv or Sankt-Gotthard-Massiv) is a mountain range in the Alps in Switzerland, located at the border of four cantons: Valais, Ticino, Uri and Graubünden. It is delimited by the Nufenen Pass on the west, by the Furka Pass and the Oberalp Pass on the north and by the Lukmanier Pass on the east. The homonymous Gotthard Pass, lying at the heart of the massif, is the main route from north to south.

The highest peaks of the massif are Pizzo Rotondo (3,192 m) in the southwest, Pizzo Centrale (2,999 m) near the centre and Piz Gannaretsch (3,040 m) in the northeast. There is no peak named Saint-Gothard.

Das Gotthardmassiv oder Sankt-Gotthard-Massiv ist ein Gebirgsmassiv der Schweizer Alpen in der Region Zentralschweiz. Es ist nach dem gleichnamigen Sankt-Gotthard-Pass benannt, welcher wiederum den Namen des Heiligen Godehard von Hildesheim trägt.
Das Gotthardmassiv liegt an der Grenze der Kantone Graubünden, Tessin, Wallis und Uri.
