Surname
Although actually higher than its neighbor, the Great Kornigl occasionally appears in the literature as the Kleiner Kornigl , as it appears lower from the nearby Proveis . Kornigl is a Germanized combination of the Latin cornu with the diminutive suffix -iculu and means croissant . The suffix Spitzner derives from the north side situated Alm tips from.
Location and surroundings
The Große Kornigl is located at the eastern end of the ridge that separates the Ultental from the Deutschnonsberg in South Tyrol ( Italy ). Towards the southeast to the Hofmahdjoch , only the Kleine Kornigl is upstream. The slopes that drop to the north and west belong to the area of the municipality of Ulten , the eastern flank to that of the municipality of St. Pankraz . The south side of the mountain, which is bounded by the ridges leading to the Kleiner Kornigl to the southeast and the Schöngrubspitze to the southwest , lies in Laurein .
Climbs
There is no marked path to the Großer Kornigl, but it can be reached from two sides. On the one hand, when climbing to the Kleiner Kornigl on the ridge that connects the two peaks, you can branch off to the Großer Kornigl and reach the summit via a path that is sometimes very exposed ; on the other hand, a ski route leads to the ridge between Großem Kornigl and Schöngrubspitze, which can easily be followed to the summit.
