Larmkogel

Larmkogel is a 3,017-meter (9,898-foot) summit in the Venediger Group characterized by steep rocky walls and slate formations near its peak. The mountain displays the exposed terrain typical of high alpine peaks in this range.

The mountain served as a key navigational reference for alpine travelers crossing the Hohe Tauern region for centuries. Its prominence as a landmark shaped the exploration history of this mountain range.

Mountaineers traditionally approach from the Neue Fürther Hütte, where they pause to rest and experience regional food and drink. The area reflects a living tradition of alpine culture passed down through generations of climbers.

Access to the summit involves routes that connect with cable cars and shuttle services to reduce hiking time. Sturdy footwear and mountaineering experience are required because the route includes technical sections and exposed terrain.

Just below the summit cross sits a secured climbing section where mountaineers can practice technical climbing in a controlled setting. This area allows visitors to test alpine climbing skills without facing extreme exposure.
