Pleisenspitze, Alpine summit in Karwendel Nature Park, Tyrol, Austria
The Pleisenspitze rises to 2,569 meters above sea level, forming the westernmost peak of the Karwendel mountain range's main ridge.
During the early 1950s, Toni Gaugg constructed the Pleisen mountain hut single-handedly, establishing a crucial rest point for mountaineers ascending the peak.
Local mountaineers maintain strict environmental protection measures throughout the Karwendel Nature Park, preserving the natural state of Pleisenspitze for future generations.
The ascent from Scharnitz requires approximately three hours of hiking through varied terrain, with the Pleisen hut offering a strategic rest point midway.
The mountain's geological composition reveals distinct weathering patterns in limestone rock, visible along the climbing routes to the summit.
