Großer Trögler, Mountain summit in Neustift im Stubaital, Austria
Großer Trögler is a mountain in the Stubai Alps that rises to approximately 2,900 meters with prominent rock walls and open alpine meadows across its slopes. The terrain transitions between forested lower sections and exposed high-altitude terrain as climbers ascend.
The mountain became part of historic trade routes that connected different valleys across the Alps and enabled the movement of goods between regions. These ancient pathways form the foundation of today's hiking network in this area.
Local mountain guides from Neustift im Stubaital maintain traditional climbing techniques while leading expeditions to the Großer Trögler summit throughout the season.
The climb is best done during warmer months when trails are snow-free and conditions are stable. Visitors should be comfortable with longer hikes and bring proper footwear and weather protection, as conditions at altitude can change rapidly.
The mountain displays the characteristic layering of the Eastern Alps, with different-colored rock layers stacked like pages in a book. This geological structure is particularly visible on the summit and along the steep rock faces.
