Hoher Burgstall, Mountain peak in Kalkkögel range, Tyrol, Austria.
The limestone summit of Hoher Burgstall rises to 2,611 meters, offering panoramic views of the Karwendel range, Zillertal Alps, and surrounding glaciers.
In 1949, Edmund Hillary made his first Alpine ascent on Hoher Burgstall, four years before his successful Mount Everest expedition.
Franz Senn developed mountaineering infrastructure in the Stubai valley, establishing detailed maps and professional guiding standards around Hoher Burgstall.
The ascent from Schlick 2000 mountain station covers 7.87 kilometers through marked trails, requiring approximately four hours and twenty minutes.
The mountain combines limestone and primary rock formations, creating geological variations that distinguish it from other peaks in the Stubai Alps.
