Kogelseespitze

Kogelseespitze rises to 2,647 meters and features limestone rock formations with sweeping views across the surrounding North Tyrol mountains. The rocky terrain and stone faces dominate the landscape where three valleys meet.

The name comes from nearby Kogelsee lake, with local shepherds and climbers establishing the first routes during the early 1900s. These historic paths connected the scattered valleys below.

The peak stands near Gramais, Austria's smallest municipality, where traditional Alpine farming shapes the valleys and remains central to local life.

The route climbs seven kilometers from Steinseehütte mountain hut and requires via ferrata equipment for secured sections. Plan around six and a half hours for the round trip and bring sturdy boots plus comfort with heights.

The summit marks where three administrative districts meet: Reutte, Landeck, and Imst converge at this single point. This geographical quirk creates a rare place where three separate regions come together.
