Texelspitze, Mountain summit in South Tyrol, Italy

The Texelspitze, reaching 3,318 meters in elevation, stands as the second highest peak within the Texel Group of the Ötztal Alps mountain range.

The initial documented climb of Texelspitze occurred on July 22, 1871, when Theodor Petersen and guides L. Ennemoser and J. Hellriegl reached the summit.

The mountain carries two names across the region, known as Texelspitze in German-speaking areas and Cima Tessa in Italian-speaking territories.

The southeast face provides the most accessible climbing route to the summit, requiring technical skills to navigate sections rated between II and III.

A geocaching point, established in 2015 under code GC5ZMKZ, adds an element of exploration for mountaineers ascending this Alpine peak.

Elevation above the sea: 3,318 m

GPS coordinates: 46.71940,10.97183
