Schochenspitze, Mountain summit in Tannheim, Austria

Schochenspitze rises to 2,069 meters in the Vilsalpseegruppe section of the Allgäu Alps, featuring steep slopes and a distinctive northern ridge leading to Blässe.

The mountain name first appeared in Emperor Maximilian's hunting book from 1500, referencing conical haystacks used for drying hay in the region.

The mountain area incorporates the Three Lakes Tour, which received recognition through the Tyrolean Mountain Trail Seal of Quality for its natural characteristics.

The normal route starts at Vilsalpsee, following path 425 to Landsberger Hütte, then continues northeast to Eastern Lachenjoch before reaching the summit.

The summit geological composition includes Aptychian limestone with embedded Raibler layers, followed by Lias spotted marl and radiolarite underneath.
