The six great north faces of the Alps are known for their difficulty and great height. They are:

• Cima Grande di Lavaredo
• Piz Badile
• Petit Dru
• Matterhorn
• Eiger
• Grandes Jorasses

Attaining the first ascent of each of these six faces was the major preoccupation of European climbers in the 1930s.
