Turnerkamp is a mountain summit at the border between Tyrol and South Tyrol in the Zillertal Alps, rising to 3,420 meters in elevation. The peak is accessible from three neighboring towns and forms a notable landmark in this high Alpine landscape.

The mountain has served as a natural border marker between Austrian Tyrol and Italian South Tyrol for centuries. This role as a boundary point is tied to the complex political history of the Alpine region.

The mountain can be reached via established hiking trails from three towns, offering multiple climbing options. Year-round snow and glacier conditions require appropriate equipment and preparation for the ascent.

A permanent glacier covers the northern slopes of the summit, creating varying climbing conditions throughout the year. This feature makes it an exceptional destination for experienced mountaineers who can manage alpine challenges.
