Plattberg, Mountain peak in Tyrol, Austria

The Plattberg, also known as Hochschrutte, rises to 2247 meters in elevation within the Ammergau Alps, featuring steep northern cliffs and broad southern slopes.

The mountain trails developed through centuries as local shepherds established paths connecting valleys in the Tyrol region for seasonal livestock movement.

The mountain holds importance for Tyrolean communities who maintain traditional Alpine farming practices on its lower slopes during summer grazing periods.

Multiple trailheads from Lermoos, Lähn, Wengle, and Bichlbach provide access to the summit, with railway connections available at the Außerfernbahn station.

The northern face drops vertically to the Pitzen valley while the southern side contains extensive rock slabs that gave the mountain its name Plattberg.
