Larchetkarspitze, Alpine summit in Tyrol, Austria

Larchetkarspitze rises to 2541 meters above sea level, featuring a tooth-shaped peak that dominates the Mitterkar cirque within the Karwendel mountain range.

Hermann von Barth accomplished the first documented climb of Larchetkarspitze on August 3, 1870, marking the beginning of mountaineering activities on this peak.

The mountain stands as a testament to Alpine mountaineering traditions, with routes established by pioneers Otto Ampferer and Willy Hammer in 1899.

Access to Larchetkarspitze begins from Scharnitz or Pleisenhütte mountain hut, requiring proper climbing equipment and experience due to unmarked routes.

The mountain presents different experiences throughout the year, transforming from a technical climbing destination in summer to a ski touring location in winter.
