Hornfeldspitze 2.277 m
The summit of Hornfeldspitz stands like a horn above the end of the Großsölktal valley. Among ski touring enthusiasts, it is rather one of the insider tips in the area of the Sölk Pass.
Passing the Erzherzog-Johann-Hütte, this ski tour leads along a forest path and at the beginning of a flat area to the right over a steep ridge in the direction of Schwarzenbach. From there it goes in a westerly direction to the east ridge of the Hornfeldspitze and along the ridge to the summit. Please note the wildlife sanctuary zones
