Roter Knopf, Mountain peak in High Tauern National Park, Austria.
Roter Knopf reaches an elevation of 3,281 meters, making it the second-highest mountain in the Schober Group within the High Tauern mountain range.
The first documented ascent of Roter Knopf occurred in 1872 when climbers J. Pöschl, K. Gorgasser, and P. Groder reached its summit.
The mountain stands as a geographical boundary marker between the regions of East Tyrol and Carinthia, representing territorial divisions in the Austrian Alps.
Climbers can access the summit via a marked route starting from Elberfelder Hut, following the southeastern ridge with a grade I difficulty level.
The summit offers direct views of Großglockner to the north, while remaining hidden from the valleys of Kalser Tal and anterior Debanttal.
