First ascent by locals

The Große Wilde is a mountain in the Allgäu Alps . A distinction is made between the south summit (also Hinterer Wilder ) ( 2359  m ), middle ( 2379  m ) and north summit ( 2370.4  m ). To the west, the Große Wilde falls as an impressive rock wall down to the Wildenfeld . The summit was conquered by locals at an early age and, even on the simplest ascent, requires climbing skills and experience in the pathless Schrofen terrain . The ascent from the Himmelecksattel over the north ridge to the north summit and the subsequent crossing to the south summit with a descent to the Wildenfeldscharte is very popular . The rock of the moderately difficult climbs is consistently brittle.

Ski mountaineering

The Große Wilde is a popular, albeit challenging, destination for ski mountaineers . While the ascent from Hinterhornbach is also done in the middle of winter, the ascent from the Ostrachtal through the Gamswanne, as well as the ascent from Oberstdorf over the Wildenfeldscharte, are usually only carried out in spring. In the Allgäu, they are typical end-of-season tours.
