Westliche Plattenspitze, Mountain summit at Silvretta Alps, Austria and Switzerland

The Westliche Plattenspitze rises to 2,883 meters above sea level, forming a natural border between Vorarlberg in Austria and Grisons in Switzerland.

The mountain paths across Westliche Plattenspitze have connected Austrian and Swiss communities for centuries, facilitating trade and communication between alpine settlements.

Mountain guides from Gaschurn and Klosters maintain traditional climbing techniques while leading expeditions to Westliche Plattenspitze throughout climbing seasons.

Access to the summit requires crossing the Plattenjoch at 2,728 meters, with marked trails starting from Tübinger Hütte or Saarbrücker Hütte mountain shelters.

The mountain shelter near Plattenjoch provides emergency protection without heating materials, while the western peak requires basic climbing skills to reach.
