Hohes Rad

Hohes Rad rises to an elevation of 2,934 meters, marking the border between Tirol and Vorarlberg provinces in the Silvretta mountain range.

The Edmund-Lorenz trail network, established through the mountain during the early Alpine exploration period, connected the regions of Montafon and Paznaun valleys.

The mountain summit features a traditional Alpine cross, representing the strong connection between mountaineering traditions and religious practices in Austrian culture.

Access to Hohes Rad requires payment for the Silvretta Hochalpenstrasse toll road, leading to the starting point at Bielerhöhe pass at 2,037 meters.

The mountain presents a geological intersection where three distinct Alpine rock formations meet, creating visible layers in its northern face.
