Gamsjoch

The Gamsjoch summit reaches 2452 meters in elevation and features three distinct peaks within the limestone formations of the Karwendel mountain range.

The mountain stands as a geological formation dating back to the Triassic period when marine sediments created the limestone structures of the Northern Limestone Alps.

Local mountaineers named sections of the viewing area Karwendel Kino due to the panoramic views of the Hinterautal-Vomper mountain chain from the summit.

The ascent to Gamsjoch begins at Die Eng Alpengasthof, covering 13.8 kilometers round trip with an elevation gain of 1324 meters over 6 to 8 hours.

The mountain path passes through Grosser Ahornboden, a natural plain containing 2300 ancient sycamore maple trees surrounding the trail system.
