Notes
- ^ In the Alps a summit is classed as independent, according to the UIAA definition, if it has a prominence of 30 metres or more. In order for a peak to qualify as an independent mountain, however, it should have a prominence of at least 300 metres. Based on this definition only the main summits of entire mountain massifs are counted.
