Mountain Features Quiz

Mountain Features Quiz brings to mind a little known mountain pass in the Alps called the Great St. Bernard Pass. For centuries, it served as a quiet but critical trade and travel route between Italy and Switzerland; even Napoleon crossed it in 1800. The pass, though often snowy and steep, became famous not just for its history, but also for the large rescue dogs bred by monks to help stranded travellers. That’s the kind of terrain and terminology you’ll encounter in this mountain terminology quiz. With each mountain landforms MCQ, you’ll gain insight into the features that shape not just mountains, but also the stories that happen around them. Geography has rarely felt more human.
