Öfnerspitze, Mountain summit in Allgäu Alps, Austria.

Öfnerspitze is a summit in the Allgäu Alps with an elevation of 2,576 meters (8,451 feet) and features steep rocky slopes with exposed dolomite rock formations. The structure of the mountain is characterized by sharp ridges and technically demanding rock passages.

The first ascent cannot be traced; the Öfnerspitze was probably climbed during a survey in 1854, and Carl Wilhelm von Gümbel went up the mountain the same year. His route led from the March (grade II). In 1890 Chr. Wolff climbed the south flank (II), in 1893 Josef Enzensperger with companions the east ridge (III), and in 1894 J. Richter and L. Rieger opened the Schaferloch variant (up to III).

The name was first recorded in 1627 hunting records as "Öffnerspüz" and appears in the 1774 Atlas Tyrolensis as "Oefner Spiz". It probably derives from the Tyrolean word "Ofen", meaning a fissured, holey rock, which describes the peak's character. The name was likely given from the Lechtal side, since Bavarian maps counted the mountain with the Krottenspitzen.

Climbing Öfnerspitze requires mountaineering experience as there are no marked trails to follow. Visitors should expect rapid weather changes at this altitude and come properly equipped for alpine conditions.

The peak is connected to neighboring Krottenspitze by an unusually flat rock platform at high altitude, which is rare in this terrain. This flat connection creates a surprising break between two technically challenging mountain passages.
