Sexegertenspitze

The Sexegertenspitze reaches an elevation of 3,429 meters and stands between Sankt Leonhard im Pitztal and Kaunertal in the Tyrolean region of Austria.

The mountain's first recorded climbing expedition occurred during the late 19th century, marking the beginning of mountaineering activities in this section of the Ötztal Alps.

Local mountain guides pass down generations of knowledge about the Sexegertenspitze's routes, sharing traditional climbing techniques with visiting mountaineers throughout the seasons.

The ascent starts at Taschachhaus mountain hut at 2,434 meters, requiring proper climbing equipment and glacier travel skills due to numerous crevasses along the route.

The north face presents a 150-meter climbing section with gradients between 45 and 50 degrees, offering excellent conditions for ice climbing during summer months.
