Rangger Köpfl, Mountain summit in Stubai Alps, Austria
Rangger Köpfl is a mountain summit reaching approximately 1,940 meters (6,365 feet) in the Stubai Alps, served by multiple hiking paths and winter sports facilities. The terrain spreads across varied slopes suited to different skill levels.
The area emerged as a recreation destination during the early 20th century when locals carved out the first hiking paths and ski routes. These initial efforts formed the foundation for today's use as a mountain sport region.
The mountain links the villages of Inzing and Oberperfuss, where local people maintain traditional Alpine pasture farming and skiing remains central to their way of life.
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.
