Spritzkarspitze, Limestone summit in Karwendel range, Austria
Description
Spritzkarspitze is a limestone peak in the Karwendel range with steep slopes and rocky faces. The summit stands out clearly above the surrounding landscape and can be seen from numerous viewpoints in the valley below.
History
The peak belongs to the Karwendel range, which formed during the alpine mountain-building process millions of years ago. Tectonic forces created the limestone layers visible in the rock today.
Culture
Local mountaineering groups maintain several traditional climbing routes on Spritzkarspitze, contributing to the preservation of Austrian alpine climbing methods.
Practical
The mountain can be reached from the valley via marked hiking trails that take several hours depending on the route chosen. Mountain shelters nearby provide rest stops and emergency shelter during the climbing season.
