Kranzhorn, Mountain summit at Bavaria-Tyrol border, Germany and Austria.

Kranzhorn is a 1,368 m mountain at the western edge of the Chiemgau Alps, with the Bavarian-Tyrolean state border running across its summit plateau. The German side belongs to Nußdorf am Inn in the Rosenheim district, the Austrian side to Erl in the Kufstein district. Two summit crosses stand on the plateau, and the peak is visible far across the Inn Valley.

Since 1504 the Bavarian-Austrian border has run through the middle of the Kranzhorn summit plateau, and it was finally fixed in 1670. Some of the boundary stones from that line still stand beside the hiking trails. Because the state border crosses the peak, the summit carries two summit crosses.

Since 1504 the Bavarian-Austrian border has run through the middle of the summit plateau, fixed definitively in 1670; some boundary stones still stand beside the hiking trails. Below the summit sits the small St. Josef chapel, the Kranzhorn-Kapelle.

The shortest and most used ascent starts at Erlerberg, passing the Bubenau and the Kranzhornalm. Other marked routes lead from Erl over the steep Erlersteig and from Windshausen to the summit. The border stones of 1670 stand beside parts of the trails.

The summit plateau carries two summit crosses because the Bavarian-Austrian border has run through its middle since 1504, fixed by treaty in 1670. Some of the boundary stones from that line still stand beside the hiking trails, and just below the top is the small St. Josef chapel, the Kranzhorn-Kapelle.
