Vordere Ölgrubenspitze, Mountain summit in Landeck District, Austria

Vordere Ölgrubenspitze is a 3,452-metre mountain in the Kaunergrat ridge of the Ötztal Alps in Tyrol. It has two summits: the south summit at 3,452 m and the lower north summit at 3,451 m, separated from the Hintere Ölgrubenspitze by the 3,044 m Ölgrubenjoch. Its boldly rising summit structure of grey rock carries a summit cross and summit book.

The south summit was first climbed on 17 August 1876 by the mountain guides Johann Praxmarer and Ignaz Schöpf, accompanied by the landlady of the Gepatschhaus; they gained the ridge south of the summit through a small cirque north of the Ölgrubenjoch. The lower north summit (3451 m) followed on 8 August 1881, when John Percy Farrar reached it with Praxmarer as guide.

The summit draws climbers from across the Alps who follow established routes and share the mountaineering tradition of the region. Local hikers and mountaineers consider it a meaningful destination for testing their skills on alpine terrain.

Climbers typically start from Taschachhaus mountain hut, combining a bike ride and hiking approach to reach the base of the mountain. The route demands proper alpine skills and fitness, particularly for the scrambling section leading to the summit.
