This is a list of the mountains of the
Alps, ordered by their

list of mountains of the Alps.
Where the island parent and the prominence parent differ, the prominence parent is marked with "1" and the island parent with "²" (with Mont Blanc abbreviated to MB). For definitions of 'island parent' and 'prominence parent', see here.
