Rosshuf, Mountain peak in Venediger Group, Austria and Italy
Rosshuf stands at 3,199 meters in elevation, forming a natural border between East Tyrol in Austria and South Tyrol in Italy within the Venediger mountain range.
The first recorded ascent of Rosshuf took place in 1854 when A. Berger and surveyors from Virgental reached the summit during their mapping expedition.
The mountain's name translates to 'Horse Hoof' in English, reflecting the local Alpine communities' practice of naming peaks based on their physical characteristics.
Climbers can access the summit from either the Lenkjöchlhütte refuge on the Italian side or the Clarahütte shelter on the Austrian side, with routes requiring ice equipment.
The mountain features three additional peaks nearby: Western Rosshuf at 3,144 meters, Middle Rosshuf at 3,180 meters, and Eastern Rosshuf at 3,171 meters.
