Lamkopf

The Lamkopf rises to 2,846 meters within the Berchtesgaden Alps, featuring rocky terrain and steep slopes that characterize the Hochkönig massif.

The first summit cross of Lamkopf, installed in 1960, stood until 2011 when lightning destroyed it, leading to the construction of a new cross in 2013.

The mountain stands within the Salzkammergut region, where centuries of salt mining activities shaped the development of local alpine communities and traditions.

Climbers can access Lamkopf through a northern route that connects to Hochkönig and Übergossene Alm, with clear markers guiding the way throughout the ascent.

The mountain maintains a prominence of 0.9 kilometers, creating distinct geographical features that set it apart from neighboring peaks in the Austrian Alps.
