To the northeast, the First Schafalpenkopf is followed by the Second Schafalpenkopf (2302 m), from which it is separated by a gap at 2170 meters. It is the reference point for the 102 meters high notch of the First Schafalpenkopf. The dominance of the First Schafalpenkopf is 500 meters, so it extends to the Second Schafalpenkopf.

Alpinism

bases

The Fiderepasshütte and the Mindelheimer Hütte (2013 m) are the bases for tours on the First Schafalpenkopf . In addition, access from Mittelberg through Wildental and from the mountain station of the Kanzelwandbahn is possible.

Routes

The Mindelheim via ferrata is the normal route for the First Schafalpenkopf . This medium-difficult via ferrata (C) crosses the mountain from northeast to southwest, from the Second Schafalpenkopf. Wire rope insurance, iron clamps and a ladder help the climber.

The routes from the time before the via ferrata was built hardly play a role today. The former normal route had difficulty II . It led through the Wildental to the summit.
