Grimming, Mountain summit in Dachstein Mountains, Austria

The Grimming rises to 2,351 meters above sea level, standing as an isolated limestone peak between the Enns valley and Salzkammergut region.

In 1822, Lieutenant Carl Baron Simbschen established a wooden survey mark at the summit and built a stone shelter for mountain visitors.

The mountain features the Grimmingtor, a natural rock formation that local folklore connects to hidden treasures behind its gate-like structure.

The summit trek spans 14 kilometers with 1,700 meters elevation gain, requiring approximately nine hours for experienced mountaineers to complete.

The mountain holds status as one of the few ultra-prominent peaks in the Alps with a prominence of 1,518 meters from surrounding terrain.
