Mitterhorn, Mountain summit in Steinernes Meer, Austria.
Mitterhorn rises to 2,491 meters in the Berchtesgaden Alps, featuring steep limestone cliffs and direct access to neighboring peaks Breithorn and Persailhorn.
The mountain paths around Mitterhorn were established in the early 20th century when Austrian Alpine Club members created routes through the Steinernes Meer range.
Local mountaineering traditions center around Mitterhorn's climbing routes, with the Saalfeldner Höhenweg trail connecting multiple summits in the Northern Salzburg Alps.
Climbers access Mitterhorn through two base camps: the Wiechenthaler Hut from Saalfelden or the Riemann Hut from Maria Alm, both providing necessary equipment storage.
The mountain stands at position 55 among 1,048 peaks in the Northern Salzburg Alps, with a prominence of 76 meters from its key col.
