Mandlkogel

The Mandlkogel rises to 2279 meters within the Gosaukamm range of the Dachstein massif at the border between Salzburg and Upper Austria.

In 1913, Austrian mountaineer Paul Preuß lost his life during an attempt to complete the first ascent of the northern ridge of Mandlkogel.

The mountain forms part of the geological heritage of Austria, featuring peak formations made from Dachstein reef limestone dating to the Upper Triassic period.

The standard route to the summit starts from Pommerbauer parking area and passes through Stuhlalm, requiring approximately four hours to complete the ascent.

The mountain contains specific sections of unprotected climbing paths that traverse through alpine meadows filled with large scattered boulders and native high-altitude vegetation.
