Hochtor 2369 m above sea level.

Its imposing north-west face, which plunges steeply and impressively over the Haindlkar, is a challenge for experienced climbers. At a height of around 900 metres above the valley floor, the Hochtor dominates the landscape and attracts views from far and wide.

There are various routes for those who want to climb to the summit. From the south, the route leads over the Schneeloch, a path that requires a head for heights and surefootedness and is rated difficulty level II. A slightly more accessible ascent is the Josefinensteig, which starts from the Hesshütte and, with a rating of I+, requires slightly less technical experience.

Another option for climbing the Hochtor is from the Haindlkarhütte. Via the Peternpfad (II) and further along the Rosskuppengrat (II+), this route not only leads to the summit, but also offers a breathtaking scenic experience.

Whether you take on the challenge of the steep walls or allow yourself to be enchanted by the beauty of the surroundings, the Hochtor promises unforgettable experiences and unrivalled views for everyone who climbs to its summit.
