Ellmauer Halt, Alpine summit in Tyrol, Austria.

The Ellmauer Halt reaches 2,344 meters in elevation and stands as the highest point of the Wilder Kaiser mountain range in the Northern Limestone Alps.

The initial conquest of the summit occurred on June 29, 1869, when mountaineers K. Hoffmann and J. Schlechter completed the first documented ascent.

The summit cross, installed in 1883, marks this prominent peak that has become a central destination for mountain climbing in the Austrian Alps.

The Grutten Hut at 1,620 meters serves as the primary base camp for climbers, providing shelter and resources before the technical ascent to the peak.

The mountain contains the Babenstuber Hut positioned near the summit, functioning as an emergency shelter since 1891 despite not being fully weatherproof.
