Schramm Acher east side, from Riepengrat seen ( from the northeast ) from

The Schramm Acher is after Olperer 3410 m above sea level. A. the second highest peak of the Tux comb within the Zillertal Alps, in the Austrian state of Tyrol. Due to its distinctive shape of a symmetrical pyramid and a high wall plate to the northwest, he dominates the area of the glacier Alpeiner addition.

First ascent

The first ascent of Schramm Aher took place on August 19, 1847 by Peter Charles Thurwieser accompanied by local mountain guide Georg Lechner and Jacob Huber. In some publications, the 27 years later ascent by Moritz von Dechy is out on 14 July 1874 as the first ascent incorrectly.

Location

The Schramm Acher is almost four kilometers in a straight line north-northwest of the Pfitschtal yoke, which marks the border between Italy and Austria, and also four kilometers west of the Schlegeis. Adjacent peaks to the north, separated from the Alpeiner saddle, Fußstein with 3,381 meters of altitude, Olperer 3,476 m in the west and the Sagwandspitze with 3,224 meters above sea level. In the east, it falls to the ground out from Zamser, and to the west of Schramm Acher overlooks the valley of the Valsertals with a steep, several hundred meters high, platy rock wall.

Bases and routes

The normal, also the way the first Steiger, runs from Pfitscher - Joch-Haus (Italian: Rifugio Passo di Vizze ) to 2,248 meters at the Western edge of the glacier Stampflkees north-northeast toward Schramm Acher upper lip. Then along the southern ridge in, according to the literature, little to moderately difficult climbing ( UIAA I-II ) to the summit in just over five hours. Additional offices are the Olpererhütte ( 2,389 m, west above the Schlegeis ) and Gera Hut ( 2,324 m) at the end of Valsertals. The paths from here can not be done under six hours and there is an increased risk of rock falls below the Schramm Acher walls.
