The Grinberg peaks comprise three peaks in the Tux ridge of the Zillertal Alps southwest of Mayrhofen :
- Vordere Grinbergspitze ( 2764 m above sea level )
- Middle Grinbergspitze (also tower , 2867 m above sea level )
- Hintere Grinbergspitze (also Kristallner , 2884 m above sea level )
The Grinberg peaks form a mighty mountain range and the end of the Tux ridge to the northeast. Already in Peter Anich 's map of Tyrol from 1774 ( Atlas Tyrolensis ) the mountain range appears as the Lachtesgebirge , perhaps to the Lachtal from Spitzegg ( 2647 m above sea level ) northwards at Freithof - while the Grinbergal is the neighboring valley from the Grinbergkar to the northeast to Brunnhaus is.
Vordere and Mittlere Grinbergspitze can be reached from Finkenberg ( 839 m above sea level ) via the Gamshütte ( 1921 m above sea level ) in a mountain tour that requires surefootedness and a head for heights. The Hintere Grinbergspitze requires climbing of difficulty level II or III, depending on the route.
