Kreuzspitze, Mountain summit in Sölden, Austria.
The Kreuzspitze rises to an elevation of 3,455 meters in the Ötztal Alps, featuring steep terrain and permanent firn fields near its peak.
Mountain climbers Franz Senn and Cyprian Granbichler completed the first documented ascent of the Kreuzspitze in 1865, establishing its prominence among Alpine peaks.
The summit cross at Kreuzspitze represents a traditional Alpine practice of marking mountain peaks with religious symbols throughout the Austrian mountains.
The Martin Busch Hut serves as a base camp at 2,501 meters, allowing hikers to split the demanding 1,543-meter elevation gain across multiple days.
The strategic position between the main ridge and Weisskamm provides views of multiple glaciers, with snow remaining on the summit ridge through summer months.
