history

the Waldraster Spitz
and the Martinswand are
the highest in the country."

- old saying

Of all the high peaks of the Stubai, the Habicht was the first to be climbed for tourists, although local hunters and the surveyors' assistants had already been on the summit. Peter Carl Thurwieser found a stone man on the summit when he was climbing the mountain on September 1, 1836 . Together with the mountain guide Ingenuin Krösbacher from Fulpmes , you climbed from the Pinnisalm in the north to the Pinnisjoch , then in a westerly direction to the Speikgrathöhe and across a firn field and the Habicht-Ostgrat to the summit. According to Thurwieser, the walking time was three hours and 25 minutes. He stayed at the summit for four and a half hours, keeping records of the view and taking barometric readings. The descent was the same way.

ways

From the Innsbrucker Hütte on the Pinnisjoch, the Habicht is relatively easy to reach on the normal route ( UIAA I offices , insurance companies ). The path leads through the southeastern flank, the Habichtferner above is free of crevices, but may be aperous in late summer . Further climbs are the western north ridge (III), the Mischbachferner ( ice tour , 50 °), the eastern north ridge (IV), the northeast face (II), from the southeast (II), the southwest ridge (II) and the southwest pillar (IV +). In winter, if the conditions are safe, the Habicht can be climbed as a ski tour over the southwest flank or over the Mischbachferner.
