Rangger Köpfl, Mountain summit in Stubai Alps, Austria

Rangger Köpfl is a broad, flat-topped mountain rising to 1,939 m about 12 km west of Innsbruck, its summit pushed far northeast toward the Inn valley. The name comes from the village of Ranggen, to which part of the mountain belongs. From the top the view runs from the Lechtal Alps past the Mieminger chain, Wetterstein and Karwendel to the Kaisergebirge, with the Stubai glaciers to the south.

Rangger Köpfl was opened up for skiing in 1967, when a one-seat chairlift began running between Oberperfuss and Stiglreith. In 1973 Doppelmayr replaced it with a two-seat chairlift, and in 2007 the eight-seat gondola Peter Anich took over, named after the cartographer Peter Anich, who was born in Oberperfuss. The Sulzstich drag lift served the slope from 1972 until 2017, when a second gondola section replaced it.

The mountain takes its name from Ranggen, the village to which part of its slopes belong. The 8-seat gondola Peter Anich is named after the cartographer Peter Anich, born in Oberperfuss in 1723. A partly illuminated toboggan run is used in winter.

Access is provided by ski lift systems, with new cable car capacity planned to improve visitor flow. Weather conditions change rapidly at this elevation, so visitors should prepare for sudden shifts and check conditions before heading up.

Winter visitors can toboggan down a 10-kilometer run and ski on illuminated slopes during evening hours after dark. These nighttime descents transform the mountain into a special destination for after-dark mountain sports.
