Schafreuter, Mountain summit in Karwendel Range, Germany and Austria
The Schafreuter rises 2102 meters above sea level, marked by steep rocky cliffs and alpine meadows at the border between Bavaria and Tyrol.
The mountain became a significant navigation point for traders crossing between Bavaria and Tyrol during the 18th century salt trade routes.
Local mountaineering clubs from both Bavaria and Tyrol organize regular group expeditions to maintain the cross-border hiking traditions.
Hikers can start their ascent from the Rißtal parking area, following the marked trail through forest paths and rocky terrain for approximately 4 hours.
The summit presents different geological formations on its German and Austrian sides, with limestone structures to the north and dolomite patterns to the south.
