The mountain has served as a geographical landmark for people in the Salzkammergut region for generations. Locals have long used it as a reference point to navigate through the Alpine landscape.

The summit serves as a popular meeting point for locals and visitors who come together to enjoy the Alpine landscape. People use the peak as a vantage point to appreciate the valleys and water below.
