Fürschießer

The Fürschießer summit rises to 2,271 meters between the Traufbach and Sperrbach valleys, featuring steep grassy slopes and multiple summit points.

The name Fürschießer first appeared in Emperor Maximilian's hunting book from 1500, later documented in the Atlas Tyrolensis of 1774 as Schafberg.

The mountain connects to the Höhenweg path system between Kemptner Hütte and Prinz-Luitpold-Haus, forming part of Bavaria's alpine hiking network.

Access to Fürschießer requires mountaineering experience, with unmarked paths leading from Fürschießersattel through challenging terrain and grade I climbing sections.

During the 1980s, extensive restoration efforts included planting alpine grass species and using jute mats to combat erosion caused by historical sheep grazing.
