The "Dolomites" are a mountain range lying in the eastern section of the northern Italian Alps, bounded by the valleys of the Isarco (northwest), the Pusteria (north), the Piave (east and southeast), the Brenta (southwest), and the Adige (west).

The highest point is the "Marmolada" (10,964 feet or (3,342 metres), the southern face of which consists of a precipice 2,000 feet (610 metres) high. Geologically, the mountains are formed of light-coloured dolomitic limestone.

"Marmolada" lies between the borders of Trentino and Veneto. The mountain consists of a ridge running west to east. Towards the south it breaks suddenly into sheer cliffs, forming a rock face several kilometres long. On the north side there is a comparatively flat glacier, the only large glacier in the Dolomites (the Marmolada Glacier, Ghiacciaio della Marmolada).

The ridge is composed of several summits, decreasing in altitude from west to east, Punta Penia (3,343 m), Punta Rocca (3,309 m), Punta Ombretta (3,230 m), Monte Serauta (3,069 m), and Pizzo Serauta (3,035 m).

Aneto is the highest mountain in the "Pyrenees" reaching a height of 3,404 metres. Mulhacen rises to 3482m making it the highest peak in the Iberian Peninsula and continental Spain. It is part of the "Sierra Nevada" range in the region of Andulusia. The highest point in the "Carpathian" mountains of Central and Eastern Europe is Mt. Gerlachovkain in northern Slovakia. It stands at 8,711 ft. (2,655m)
