Schafreuter, Mountain summit in Karwendel Range, Germany and Austria

Schafreuter is a mountain summit in the Karwendel Range straddling the border between Bavaria and Tyrol at approximately 2,100 meters elevation. The peak features steep rock faces and scree fields on one side with alpine meadows on the other.

A border stone from 1844 marks the frontier between Bavaria and Tirol on the summit ridge. The wooden summit cross was destroyed by axe blows in late August 2016; a week later a self-built replacement was put up, reportedly by members of the far-right Identitäre Bewegung. In early October the Tölz section of the German Alpine Club erected a third cross, which was sawn and then found completely destroyed on 5 November 2016. A cross has since been renewed.

A border stone from 1844 marks the state border on the summit ridge. The wooden summit cross has been repeatedly damaged and replaced since August 2016, when an unknown person struck it with an axe; a third cross from the Tölz section of the German Alpine Club was sawn and destroyed in November 2016, and the cross has since been renewed.

The summit is climbed from the Moosenalm (1,580 m) over a grassy ridge, or from the Tölzer Hütte (1,835 m) over short secured rock steps. The Moosenalm is reached from the Fall bus stop, from the Oswaldhütte stop in the Rißtal, or over the Pirschschneid and Grasköpfel (1,726 m). The Tölzer Hütte is reached steeply from the Rißtal or by a long route through the Dürrach and Krottenbach valleys from Fall; a high traverse comes from the Plumsjochhütte over Kompar, Grasberg, Hölzelstaljoch and the Baumgartenalm.

A border stone from 1844 marks the Bavaria–Tirol boundary on the summit. In late August 2016 an unknown person damaged the wooden summit cross with an axe, and it had to be taken down; a week later a group erected a replacement, and in early October the Tölz section of the German Alpine Club put up a third cross, which was sawn and then found completely destroyed on 5 November 2016. The cross has since been renewed.
