The Dawinkopf is a peak in the Lechtal Alps , in the Austrian state of Tyrol . At 2968 meters, it is the second highest mountain in the Lechtal Alps and the third highest in the Northern Limestone Alps . Its rock consists mainly of main dolomite and Lias spotted marl . Neighboring peaks are the northeastern Bocksgartenspitzen (up to 2941 m above sea levelTemplate: height / unknown reference ) and in the further ridge course the Parseierspitze , highest mountain in the Lechtal Alps, in the northwest the southern Schwarze Kopf (2947 m) and to the west the Eisenspitze . The Dawinkopf is made accessible by the Augsburger Höhenweg , which leads over its summit. It was first climbed in 1885 by Wilhelm Reich from Vienna and G. Strauss.

On the summit there is an automatic measuring station from the Tyrolean Avalanche Warning Service to record avalanche and mudslides.

Tour possibilities

The Dawinkopf is crossed in the course of the Augsburger Höhenweg. Access from the Augsburger Hütte to the Dawinkopf requires crossing a small glacier , the Grinner Ferners , then the narrow, partially exposed and rope- secured path leads through the Bocksgarten south around the Südliche Bocksgartenspitze ( 2939 m above sea levelTemplate: height / unknown reference ) over the east ridge to the summit. The continuation of the high path to the Ansbacher Hütte is a long and demanding high-altitude tour . The only climbing routes on the Dawinkopf described in the Alpine Club Guide are the south ridge (without any indication of difficulty) and the brittle south-west face with difficulty UIAA III .
