One of the "14 eight-thousanders in the Eastern Ore Mountains" - the Himalayas in the Eastern Ore Mountains!

Altitude: 807 m

This summit is located in the middle of the cross-country skiing area. There is a small hut where you can rest and in summer the surrounding meadows are perfect for a longer break. At the Scharspitze, you will find a stamp indicating that the summit is a destination on the "14 eight-thousanders" tour.

The starter pack gives you your own personal stamp card, which you can use to pick up the original Gipfelstürmer T-shirt from the tourist information office at the end of the tour.

Simply order online here or buy directly at the Tourist Information Office.
