Federispitz, Mountain summit in the Appenzell Alps, canton St. Gallen, Switzerland

Federispitz is the 1865 m summit of the Federigrat ridge in the Speer-Mattstock area, on the municipality of Schänis in canton St. Gallen. Its rocky north face drops steeply, while the western side is called Schänner Berg. The ridge runs northeast past the Alp Obernäten, with the Vordere Federispitz (1699 m) below the main peak.

The sources record no climbing or tourism history for Federispitz; its documented past is cartographic and linguistic. The name Federispitz belongs to the highest point, 1865 m, of the Federigrat, the ridge running northeast past the Alp Obernäten above Schänis. The western slope, called Schänner Berg, is known for the strong west wind locals call "Federi Brüeli", the roar of the Federispitz.

The west side, above Schänis, is called Schänner Berg. When westerly winds hit this slope they build into a strong wind that locals call Federi Brüeli, roughly "the roar of the Federispitz". The peak is the Hausberg, the home mountain, of Schänis.

The summit is reached on foot from the Schänis side, where the western flank is known as the Schänner Berg; the Vordere Federispitz at 1699 m is passed on the way to the 1865 m top. The rocky north face drops steeply, so the ascent stays on the gentler western and southern slopes. With westerly winds the exposed ridge produces a strong gust called Federi Brüeli.

The west side, called Schänner Berg, funnels west winds into a strong local blast that locals call "Federi Brüeli", roughly the roar of the Federispitz. The rocky north face drops steeply below the summit.
