Totenkirchl, Mountain summit in Wilder Kaiser range, Austria

The Totenkirchl rises 2,190 meters above sea level, featuring steep limestone walls and multiple climbing routes within the Northern Limestone Alps.

The mountain gained recognition in the early 20th century when climber Hans Dülfer established several routes, including the now-famous Dülfer Chimney passage.

The German name Totenkirchl translates to Dead Church, reflecting the mountain's stark appearance and its role in local Alpine climbing traditions.

Climbers access the mountain through Stripsenjochhaus mountain hut, which serves as the primary base for expeditions and provides essential facilities.

The summit contains over 50 established climbing routes rated at UIAA grade III, making it a significant destination for technical climbing enthusiasts.
