Wildgerlosspitze

Wildgerlosspitze is a summit in the Zillertal Alps that reaches 3,500 meters and stands out for its steep rocky terrain. Glaciers cover much of the mountain, making it a challenging destination for mountaineers who want to test their alpine skills.

The mountain was first summited in 1865, a significant achievement in Austrian mountaineering history. Since then, several climbing routes have been established and refined, creating a legacy that continues to attract climbers today.

The mountain stands as a representation of Austrian mountaineering traditions, with local guides sharing knowledge of routes passed through generations.

The most common starting point is Konradshütte mountain hut, which serves as a base for the climb and supplies important route information. Proper glacier equipment including crampons, ice axes, and ropes is absolutely necessary, as conditions can change rapidly throughout the day.

The summit is known for sudden weather changes that can dramatically shift climbing difficulty within hours. The location near multiple glaciers means the route conditions vary greatly depending on the season and recent snow or ice patterns.
