Rotwandlspitze

The Rotwandlspitze reaches an elevation of 2,191 meters and features steep limestone cliffs rising from the surrounding Karwendel mountain range territory.

The mountain has been a significant navigational point for travelers crossing between Austria and Germany since the establishment of alpine routes in the 1800s.

Local mountaineering groups maintain traditional climbing routes on Rotwandlspitze, preserving generations of alpine climbing knowledge through seasonal gatherings and training sessions.

Climbers can access the summit through marked trails starting at Mittenwalder railway station, with equipment rentals and guides available in nearby Innsbruck.

The southeastern face of Rotwandlspitze contains multiple technical climbing sections secured with steel cables, allowing year-round access for experienced mountaineers.
