The summit is about 6 km (as the crow flies ) southwest of Ehrwald and immediately southwest of Lermoos or west of Biberwier . Despite its low independence with regard to the geographical parameters dominance and prominence , its perspective-related optical independence is great, especially from Lermoos.

The 3168 m long Lermoos tunnel , a section of the Fernpassstraße (B179), runs through the northeast and east side of the valley foot . In the southwest, the Grubigstein towers over the headwaters of the Loisach , in the south the Fernpass .
