Innere Schwarze Schneid

Innere Schwarze Schneid rises to 3,367 meters in elevation, featuring two glaciers on its slopes: the Rettenbach glacier and the Tiefenbach glacier.

The first documented climb to the summit occurred on July 23, 1874, led by Theodor Petersen, Moriz von Déchy, and Victor Hecht with three local guides.

The mountain name translates to 'Inner Black Knife' in English, referring to its distinctive shape visible from specific vantage points in the region.

Access to the mountain requires using the Tiefenbachferner cable car to reach Tiefenbachjoch, followed by a thirty-minute hike along a rocky path with safety ropes.

The mountain features a large panorama terrace on its eastern slope, offering views of multiple Alpine peaks including Zugspitze, Ortler, and the Dolomites.
