Tuxeck

Tuxeck, Mountain summit in Kaisergebirge, Tyrol, Austria.

The Tuxeck is a 2,226 m peak in the Kaisergebirge of Tyrol, Austria, lying south of the Treffauer and also called the Ellmauer Hochkaiser. It is a rocky summit, not granite, reached by a signed trail from the Jägerwirt inn near Scheffau; the final 10 m are UIAA grade III with a few iron rings, steep and exposed.

J. Enzensperger and H. Hahn made the first ascent on 14 August 1897, reaching the summit via the signed crossing from the Treffauer. The route they chose is still used today and involves passages of UIAA grade I. The southern arête, at grade IV, is now rarely climbed and is considered only of historical interest.

Locals also call the Tuxeck the Ellmauer Hochkaiser, and the peak belongs to the municipality of Ellmau. The first ascent on 14 August 1897 by J. Enzensperger and H. Hahn followed the marked crossing from the Treffauer, a route climbers still use today. The southern arête at grade IV is now rarely climbed and is kept only as a historical line.

The primary ascent route begins at Jägerwirt parking area and involves marked trails with sections rated UIAA grade III, requiring proper climbing equipment including helmet and ropes for safety.

The final ten meters to the summit feature iron rings installed in the steep granite wall, providing essential assistance for climbers navigating the most exposed and technical portion of the ascent.
