Are you talking FAA or JAA ? FAA Dicatate 12500 feet for pilots with 14000 feet for up to 30 minutes and passengers 15000.

15000 would clear most of the Alps other than a few peaks and there is always the option of staying on oxygen until clear of high terrain instead of a far greater risk of descending blind into high terrain.
