  • In the southwest through the Bernina Pass ( line Tirano in Valtellina - Val di Posciavo ( Poschiavo ) - Bernina Bach - Samedan in the Engadin ) separated from the Bernina group
  • In the northwest separates the upper Engadin ( Samedan - Zernez ) the area of the Albula Alps
  • In the north- east to form the border Sesvennagruppe and Ortlergruppe by the Alpine Club classification of the Eastern Alps (AVE ) line Zernez - lower Val da Spoel to confluence Ova dal Fuorn to the Sesvenna, Punt dal Gall and from there Valle del Gallo ( western arm of Lago di Livigno ) - Passo di Fraele - Valle di Fraele - Bormio in Valtellina to the Ortler Alps
  • In Switzerland is Zernez - Ofen Pass - Val Müstair ( Munster ) for Sesvennagruppe and Stelvio to the Ortler
