Schneefernerkopf, Limestone mountain peak at Wetterstein range, Germany and Austria.

The Schneefernerkopf reaches an elevation of 2,875 meters and stands between Bavaria and Tyrol, featuring steep slopes and rocky outcrops at its summit.

Hermann von Barth completed the first documented ascent of Schneefernerkopf in 1871, marking a significant advancement in Alpine mountaineering exploration.

The mountain serves as a natural boundary between German and Austrian territories, representing the shared Alpine heritage of both nations.

Climbers can access the summit through the Zugspitzplatt route via the Schneefernerscharte, with the Wiener-Neustädter-Hütte offering nearby accommodation.

The Neue Welt ski run descends almost 2,000 meters to Ehrwald, incorporating slopes that reach inclinations of up to 45 degrees.
