Plattspitzen, Mountain summit in Wetterstein Mountains, Germany and Austria.

The Plattspitzen rises to 2,680 meters with three distinct summits: eastern Gatterlspitz, middle summit, and western summit along the German-Austrian border.

Hermann von Barth completed the first recorded climb of all three Plattspitzen peaks in 1871, starting his expedition from the Zugspitzplatt ledge.

The mountain, previously named Wetterschrofen, stands as a natural border marker between Bavarian and Tyrolean territories in the Northern Limestone Alps.

Climbers access the eastern summit through a five-hour route from Knorr Hut at 2,052 meters, encountering Grade III difficulty sections.

The southern face drops 700 meters toward the Gais valley, while the northern side connects to the Zugspitze through limestone formations.
