Schönfeldspitze, Alpine summit in Steinernes Meer, Austria.

The Schönfeldspitze reaches an elevation of 2,653 meters, making it the second highest mountain in the Steinernes Meer section of the Berchtesgaden Alps.

The development of climbing routes on Schönfeldspitze contributed to the exploration of the Berchtesgaden Alps during the early days of Alpine mountaineering.

The summit features a distinctive religious monument depicting the Virgin Mary holding Jesus, reflecting the strong Catholic traditions of the Salzburg region.

Hikers can access the mountain through multiple routes starting from Saalfelden or the Riemannhaus, with trails varying between 5 and 21 kilometers in length.

The mountain's limestone composition creates a karst landscape where water scarcity requires climbers to carry sufficient supplies throughout their ascent.
