Auerspitz, Mountain summit in Mangfall Mountains, Bavaria, Germany.

Auerspitz is a mountain summit in the Mangfall range standing at about 1,811 meters (5,940 feet) in Bavaria. Several hiking paths lead to the top, with some connecting to the Spitzingsee region and others reaching it from nearby mountain stations.

The mountain became a popular hiking destination in the 1800s after mountain huts like Rotwandhaus were built in the surrounding area. This infrastructure made the peak more accessible to larger groups of mountaineers and trekkers.

The Auerspitz lies on the municipal territory of Bayrischzell, close to the Kufstein district of Tyrol. The Sillberghaus on the ascent is a privately run inn open only at weekends and on public holidays, with more than 30 beds for overnight stays. The peak is climbed from the Rotwandhaus in about 30 minutes.

The best time to hike here is from spring through fall when the trails are clear of snow and passable. It helps to check weather conditions beforehand and bring proper footwear and water for the walk.

The Auerspitz lies on the municipal territory of Bayrischzell, close to the Kufstein district of Tyrol. From the summit the north face of the Hinteres Sonnwendjoch dominates the view south, while the Wilde Kaiser and the Großvenediger can be made out in the distance.
