Eiskogel, Mountain peak in Werfenweng, Austria.

The Eiskogel rises to 2321 meters above sea level, featuring steep rocky sections and varied terrain throughout its ascending paths.

The mountain's name derives from German words meaning ice peak, reflecting the cold conditions and snow accumulation patterns observed by early local settlers.

Local mountaineering traditions in the Pongau region include annual summer climbs to Eiskogel's summit, followed by gatherings at nearby mountain huts.

The ascent starts from the Talschluss parking area, with multiple marked trails leading to the summit requiring proper hiking equipment and weather monitoring.

The Schneiderleitensteig route to Eiskogel presents an unmarked path through remote sections, passing an old hunting hut and crossing seasonal snowfields.
