Scheichenspitze

The Scheichenspitze rises to 2,667 meters in elevation, featuring steep rocky slopes and multiple climbing routes through the alpine terrain.

The mountain routes were established during the rise of alpine tourism in the late 19th century, when mountaineers began mapping the Dachstein range.

The summit attracts mountaineers from Austria and neighboring countries who value the physical demands of high-altitude climbing in the Eastern Alps.

Hikers access the summit through trail number 618 from Guttenberghaus, following markers through Gruberscharte and continuing toward Landfriedtal valley.

The mountain trek demands 1,695 meters of ascent across 13.9 kilometers, requiring technical climbing skills in several exposed sections.
