Keeskogel, 2.884 m

At 2,884 meters, the Keeskogel is the highest mountain in Grossarltal and the valley’s only glacier-capped peak. It dominates the head of the valley at Hüttschlag and is an impressive destination for experienced mountaineers. This challenging high-altitude tour starts at the Hüttschlag Talschluss parking lot near the Talwirt Inn and leads through the Modereggalm area into high alpine terrain. The tour requires excellent physical condition, sure-footedness, alpine experience, and appropriate equipment.

Even in winter, the Keeskogel is a special destination for experienced ski tourers. The ski tour is considered challenging, involves a long and steep ascent, and requires glacier experience as well as safe snow conditions.
