A double summit, double peak, twin summit, or twin peak is a mountain or hill that has two summits, separated by a col or saddle. One well-known double summit is Austria's highest mountain, the Großglockner, where the main summit of the Großglockner is separated from that of the Kleinglockner by the Glocknerscharte col in the area of a geological fault.
