Linderspitzen, Mountain summit between Scharnitz, Austria and Mittenwald, Germany.
Linderspitzen is a mountain group along the Austria-Germany border consisting of three limestone peaks. The formation rises dramatically from the surrounding valleys and creates a striking rock wall visible from multiple vantage points in the region.
The mountain was developed as a climbing destination during the 20th century and became an important site for mountaineers. The establishment of secured routes and fixed ropes reflected the growing tradition of Alpine climbing in the region.
The Mittenwalder Höhenweg via ferrata route connects multiple sections of the mountain, representing traditional Alpine climbing techniques through secured paths and fixed ropes.
The nearest starting point is accessible from the Karwendelbahn cable car station, where various climbing routes begin. Several mountain huts nearby offer rest and supplies for climbers making the ascent.
Small emergency shelters are hidden at mountain passes and provide unexpected safe spots during challenging climbs. These modest structures have offered refuge to climbers facing difficult weather or tired legs.
