Stubwieswipfel, Mountain summit in Totes Gebirge, Austria.
Stubwieswipfel is a mountain peak standing at 1,786 meters in the Totes Gebirge range. Its location offers views across neighboring mountain ranges including the Ennstal Alps and Sengsengebirge.
The peak became a key reference point during the 19th century as climbing routes were developed through the Totes Gebirge. The trails that exist today grew out of long tradition and have been preserved through generations.
The peak holds meaning for local mountaineers who regularly visit it as part of their climbing traditions. People in the region still use it today as a training ground and gathering point for outdoor activities.
The hike begins at the Wurzeralm cable car station and takes around three and a half hours to complete. The ascent covers approximately 1,060 meters of elevation gain and requires solid mountain hiking experience.
The northern slope becomes consistently icy during winter and requires special equipment like crampons for safe passage. This transforms the mountain into a different challenge compared to summer visits.
