Edelweißlahnerkopf

Edelweißlahnerkopf, Mountain summit in the Berchtesgaden Alps, Bavaria, Germany

Edelweißlahnerkopf is a 1953 m high edge summit of the Reiter Alm in the Berchtesgaden Alps. Seen from Ramsau in the east it rises clearly from the ridge with a steep rock flank streaked with mountain pine, while from the west, from the Reiter Alm plateau, it is an unremarkable pine-covered knoll. A cross stands on the summit.

The sources record no territorial or boundary history for Edelweißlahnerkopf; it is documented as a 1953 m summit on the rim of the Reiter Alm in the Berchtesgaden Alps, in Bavaria. Its present-day use is as a hiking goal reached by a marked trail from the Neue Traunsteiner Hütte in 2 to 2.5 hours, with a cross standing on the summit.

The summit cross stands on a 1953 m peak of the Reiter Alm ridge. From the Ramsau side the mountain shows a steep rock flank streaked with mountain pine, while from the Reiter Alm plateau it is a low, pine-covered knoll. A marked path from the Neue Traunsteiner Hütte reaches the cross in 2 to 2.5 hours over easy but tiring ups and downs.

Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and weather-resistant clothing since the ascent is steep and exposed on the mountain. Winter weather and fog make the route challenging, so clear conditions and knowledge of current trail status are beneficial.

The south-west view is blocked by the neighbouring Schottmalhorn, but to the south the Großglockner can be made out in good visibility. The drop to the Hintersee below is 1164 m, and the Watzmann's west face and the Hochkalter dominate the south-east panorama.
