Rastkogel, Mountain summit in Tyrol, Austria.

The Rastkogel rises to an elevation of 2,762 meters, featuring a pyramidal shape and standing prominently on the main crest of the Tux Alps.

The mountain has long served as a geographical boundary marker between different valleys of Tyrol, connecting the Tuxertal with the westernmost section of Zillertal.

Local mountaineering traditions include annual summer ascents to Rastkogel's peak, where hikers gather to experience the Alpine environment of Tyrol.

Visitors can reach the summit through a marked trail from the Rastkogel Hut at 2,117 meters, with the ascent taking approximately three hours.

The mountain forms part of the Zentralalpenweg 02A, maintaining an isolation distance of 8.8 kilometers from its nearest higher neighbor, the Kalkwand.
