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

Altitude: 805 m

The approximately 30 million year old rocky outcrop was formed by volcanic activity. Basalt deposits formed in the immediate vicinity. Today, only the remains of the quarry can be seen to the north-east of the summit. The Steinkuppe is located near the border with the Czech Republic. It is a wooded elevation near Holzhau.

At the Steinkuppe you will find a stamp point which marks the summit as 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.
