The Trudner Horn ( Italian Monte Corno ) is a 1781 m high mountain in the Fiemme Valley Alps .
Location and surroundings
The Monte Corno is a little prominent peak in the wooded ridge of the South Tyrolean lowlands of Fiemme and Cembra in Trentino ( Italy separates). While it drops rapidly towards the southeast to the Val di Fiemme near Capriana and Altrei , the Königswiese , with which the Trudner Horn is connected via the Gfriller saddle ( 1450 m ), lies in front of it towards the west towards the Etsch valley . To the southwest, the ridge continues with only slight differences in altitude over numerous peaks, to the northeast, however, it is soon cut by the Zisssattel ( 1489 m ) and then - reaching only lower heights and always gently sloping - ends at the San Lugano saddle .
The summit of the Trudner Horn is just on the Trentino side, as is the managed Horn-Alm, which is located a little below at an altitude of 1710 m . The north and west facing flanks on the South Tyrolean side, called Hüttwald , are protected in the Trudner Horn Nature Park . The mountain is made accessible by several hiking trails, which are accessible from Gschnon , located on a terrace in front of the Horn to the northwest, as well as from southwest Gfrill , northeast Truden and southeast Capriana and Altrei.
Surname
The mountain appears as early as 1234 under the Latin form of the name Cornus , which is also documented as horn from around 1500 . In the Atlas Tyrolensis from the second half of the 18th century it is recorded as Horn B. , around 1900 it is called Hornspitz . The name addition Trudner after the nearby village Truden is more recent.
