Tabarettaspitze, Alpine summit in South Tyrol, Italy
Tabarettaspitze rises to 3,128 meters in the Ortler Alps with steep rocky walls and multiple climbing routes reaching the summit. The various approaches offer different difficulty levels and distinct pathways for climbers.
The mountain gained recognition among climbers after the Ferrata Tabaretta route was established, with modifications made to it in 2019. This development made the north side an increasingly popular destination for climbers.
The mountain carries both Italian and German names, reflecting South Tyrol's bilingual identity. These names appear equally in local hiking maps and among climbers in the region.
Access the mountain via the Orso cable car followed by CAI path 10 to reach Tabaretta Hut at 2,556 meters. From this point, various route options open up depending on your experience and available time.
The Geelen Knott section features a near-vertical hundred-meter climb with minimal natural holds, demanding specific climbing techniques and considerable strength. This technically demanding passage is known for testing climbers' abilities seriously.
