Lizumer Reckner

Lizumer Reckner is a summit in the Tux Alps that reaches 2,886 meters in elevation. It is the highest peak in this mountain range, located southeast of Innsbruck in Tyrol.

The summit formed during the Jurassic period, revealing distinctive geological features like serpentinite blocks embedded within radiolarite structures. These ancient rock formations define the mountain's composition today.

The mountain lies within the Lizum Walchen Military Training Area, where Austrian armed forces conduct regular exercises and maintain operational readiness.

The climb begins from Lizumer Hütte at 2,019 meters and involves a trek of about 9 kilometers with roughly 867 meters of elevation gain. Plan the ascent during stable weather and bring appropriate gear for mountain conditions.

The summit contains mineral deposits including albite, hematite, quartz, and rhodonite, which make it valuable to geologists and mineral collectors. These minerals appear less frequently in other peaks of the region.
