Freiungspitzen

The Kuhljochspitze is a mountain, 2,297 m (AA) high, in the Erlspitze Group in the Karwendel Alps in Austria.

The Schlossbach is a river of Tyrol, Austria, a left tributary of the Inn. The Schlossbach rises below the Reither Spitze in the municipality of Reith bei Seefeld and flows in a north to south direction. After around 1.5 km (0.93 mi) it collects the river Grieskarbach from the left. In its upper reaches is a gorge, the Schlossbachklamm (location: 47.297059°N 11.238778°E / 47.297059; 11.238778). This is traversed at a height of 60 metres (200 ft) by the Schlossbach Bridge which carries the track of the Mittenwald Railway. The railway bridge is a 66-metre-long (217 ft), trussed arch structure made of steel and a popular photograph subject. After emerging from the narrow gorge into the Inn valley, the Schlossbach flows through Zirl and empties into the Inn southwest of the village. Together with the Ehnbach further east, it has pushed the Inn southwards and piled up the alluvial fan on which Zirl has been built.

The Erlspitze Group (German: Erlspitzgruppe), also called the Seefeld Group, is the southwesternmost side range of the Austrian part of the Karwendel mountains in the Alps. It forms a horseshoe-shaped highland around the valley of Eppzirler Tal and is joined in the south to the Nordkette by the Erl Saddle (Erlsattel) near Solsteinhaus. It is bounded in the west by the Seefeld Basin, in the east by the valleys of the Gleirschtal and the Großes Kristental; its forested northern foothills reach as far as Scharnitz. Unlike the four main ranges of the Karwendel, the Erlspitze Group is made of Main Dolomite. Typical of this rock are bizarre weathering forms, like towers, pinnacles and sharply formed arêtes as well as rock arches and caves as a consequence of the rapid erosion of individual rock strata. Its valley bases are Hochzirl, Reith, Seefeld and Scharnitz, all of which are on the Innsbruck-Mittenwald section of the Mittenwald Railway. Two alpine club huts act as bases for tours in the area of the Erlspitze Group: in the west is the Nördlinger Hut and, in the south, is the Solsteinhaus. In the northern part of the Erlspitze Group are two huts open in summer: the Oberbrunnalm and, in the Eppzirler Tal, the Eppzirler Alm. Important peaks (by height) Erlspitze (2,405 m (AA)) Reither Spitze (2,374 m (AA)) Freiungen (2,332 m (AA)) Kuhljochspitze (2,297 m (AA)) Härmelekopf (2,224 m (AA)) Seefelder Spitze (2,221 m (AA)) Fleischbanktürme (2,216 m (AA)) Fleischbankspitze (2,206 m (AA)) Karlspitze (2,174 m (AA)) Seefelder Joch (2,060 m (AA)) Zischgenkopf (1,932 m (AA)) Zäunlkopf (1,746 m (AA))

The Nördlinger Hut (German: Nördlinger Hütte) is an Alpine Club hut belonging to the German Alpine Club that is situated at a height of 2,238 m (AA) south of the summit of the Reither Spitze in the Austrian state of Tyrol. It is thus the highest refuge hut in the entire Karwendel range. It is located in the westernmost part of the Karwendel Alps, the Erlspitze Group, above the village and ski resort of Seefeld. From the hut there are expansive views over the Stubai Alps, the Inn valley and the Wetterstein Mountains.

The Reither Spitze is a mountain in the Karwendel in the Austrian federal state of Tyrol that, thanks to its location at the southwestern end of the Erlspitze Group, is particularly well known for its great views of the surrounding area from its summit. Its name is derived the village of Reith bei Seefeld, which lies at its southwestern foot. The Schlossbach, a tributary of the River Inn, rises on the mountainside.

Schafreuter or Schafreiter is a mountain at the border of Bavaria, Germany and Tirol, Austria in the Karwendel range.

The Erlspitze, at 2,405 m (AA), is the highest mountain of the range to which it gives its name in the southeastern corner of the Karwendel Alps. Its pyramid-shaped summit makes it a good observation peak north of the Erl Saddle and the Solsteinhaus mountain hut.

The Brunstkopf is a mountain immediately north of Zirl in the Karwendel Alps in the Austrian state of Tyrol. It is 1,719 metres high.

The Seefelder Spitze is a mountain east of Seefeld in Tirol in the Karwendel Alps in the Austrian state of Tyrol. It is 2,221 metres high and there is a summit cross at the top.

The Solsteinhaus is an Alpine Club hut belonging to the Austrian Alpine Club located at a height of 1,806 m (AA) on the Erl Saddle (Erlsattel) between the mountains of the Nordkette and Erlspitze Group. It was opened in 1914 and totally renovated in 2007. It lies in the western Karwendel Alps in the state of Tyrol not far from the state capital of Innsbruck. Due to its central location and the numerous tour options it offers, the hut is a base for climbers taking part in tours of several days long, as well as a starting point for summit attempts. In addition the hut is a popular destination for hikers who can easily do a day tour to the hut. In winter the hut is closed, but there is a winter room for ski tourers. During safe avalanche conditions, high Alpine ski tours can be undertaken to the surrounding summits; but these all require good experience.

The Härmelekopf is a mountain northeast of Seefeld in Tirol in the Karwendel Alps in the Austrian state of Tyrol. It is 2,224 metres high.

The Rauenkopf, also Rauchenkopf, is a mountain northeast of Reith bei Seefeld in the Karwendel Alps in the Austrian state of Tyrol. It is 2,011 metres high.
