Ristfeuchthorn, Mountain summit in Chiemgau Alps, Germany.

The Ristfeuchthorn reaches an elevation of 1,569 meters and stands among the peaks of the Chiemgau Alps, offering views of Sonntagshorn and Watzmann.

In the 17th century, Duke Maximilian of Bavaria constructed the first pipeline near Ristfeuchthorn for salt transportation from local mines to address wood shortages.

The name Ristfeuchthorn combines elements referring to livestock refuge and natural surroundings, reflecting the traditional agricultural practices of the Bavarian region.

The ascent to Ristfeuchthorn summit requires 2.5 hours of climbing through marked trails, starting from Weißbach at 610 meters above sea level.

The mountain features the Sellarnalm rest station at 1,138 meters, where hikers encounter a transition from dense forest to alpine vegetation zones.
