Babylonischer Turm

The Babylonischer Turm rises to 2050 meters within the Allgäu Alps, featuring a distinctive rock pinnacle formation in the eastern ridge of Kellenspitze.

First climbers reached the summit through the normal route in 1904, establishing a path that ranges from UIAA grade I to III difficulty levels.

The mountain takes its name from the Tower of Babel, reflecting the local tradition of naming peaks after significant architectural structures.

Multiple climbing routes offer various difficulty levels, from the accessible South Gully to the challenging West Face requiring technical climbing skills.

The Southwest Arête, established in 1921, presents grade IV+ climbing challenges while providing direct access to the summit's northeastern section.
