Serles

Serles is a 2717-meter peak located between the Stubai Valley and Wipptal in the Tyrol region. The mountain features distinctive dolomite rock formations that shape its appearance and structure.

The first recorded ascent of Serles took place in 1579, marking when mountaineers began regularly climbing to the summit. Since then, the peak has become an established destination in the Stubai Alps.

The local population calls Serles the Altar of Tyrol because its profile resembles a religious structure when viewed from below. This name shows how deeply the mountain is connected to the region's identity.

Multiple trails approach the summit from Matrei am Brenner and Fulpmes, with the Serlesjöchl route being the most direct option. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions and wear sturdy footwear.

The peak features several lower summits, including Sonnenstein at 2476 meters, creating a complex landscape with multiple ridges and valleys. This variety in elevation and formation makes the ascent more interesting for those who explore the whole area.
