Hochtausing

The Hochtausing mountain reaches an elevation of 1823 meters, featuring steep northern and southern faces rising from dense forested ridges in Styria.

Alpine guides documented the mountain's technical climbing routes during the early explorations of the Totes Gebirge range, establishing access paths through forest roads.

Local mountaineering communities maintain the secured Toni-Steig path through steep gullies, incorporating metal ladders for safer navigation of challenging sections.

The ascent begins at Schönmoos parking area at 1130 meters, following marked trails through woodland before reaching the eastern climbing route at 1450 meters.

The mountain's eastern approach contains technical sections rated A/B and 1+, requiring careful navigation through exposed ridgelines and downclimbing near the summit.
