The Dreitorspitze is a multi-peaked, powerful and very striking mountain range in the eastern part of the Wetterstein Mountains . This is divided into the Partenkirchner ( 2633  m above sea level ) and the Leutascher Dreitorspitze ( 2682  m above sea level ), both of which have several peaks. The main peak of the fourth highest mountain range in Germany is the Leutascher Dreitorspitze, also known as the Karlspitze . The three-gate peak marks the point where the main chain of the Wetterstein deviates from its main direction (west-east) to the north, only to return shortly afterwards to the main direction. To the east of the Dreitorspitze lies the karst plateau of the Leutascher Platt, comparable to the Zugspitzplatt at the foot of the Zugspitze .

The main peaks can be climbed the easiest way in the 1st or 2nd degree of difficulty . An easy via ferrata secured with wire ropes , named after the famous explorer of the Northern Limestone Alps, Hermann von Barth , leads to the western summit of the Partenkirchen Dreitorspitze . All other peaks are reserved for climbers. An ascent usually takes place as part of a two-day tour with an overnight stay at the Meilerhütte, a day tour has very high physical requirements.
