The Hochsaalbachkogel can be reached from both sides through rope-insured climbing passages and a narrow ridge. Surefootedness is required. The efforts are rewarded with a great view and can be recorded in the summit book.

Hiking

The summit of the Hochsaalbachkogel at 2,211 meters offers an impressive panorama of the gentle ridges of the Kitzbühel Alps and the striking peaks of the Hohe Tauern. As part of the popular ridge path between Stemmerkogel and Schattberg, it is a worthwhile stopover for anyone seeking to enjoy alpine expanse and tranquility. The largely grassy summit invites you to linger and offers ideal conditions for a relaxing rest with a view.
