The Hochschober is with a height of 3242 m above sea level. A. the fourth highest and eponymous mountain of the Schober group in the Hohe Tauern . Its glaciated northern flank is an impressive sight from Kals . When the geographer Adolf Schaubach introduced the Schobergruppe as a mountain group in 1845 , he chose the name after the Hochschober because he mistakenly believed it to be the highest mountain south of the Peischlachtörl.
The easiest ascent is via the Hochschoberhütte ( 2322 m ) from the south over the Staniskascharte ( 2936 m ) and the west ridge. An ascent possibility of comparable difficulty is offered from the east and the upper part of the southeast ridge. The latter route is ideal when using the Lienzer Hut ( 1977 m ) as a base. Both ascent trails are marked and in midsummer, in contrast to earlier years, are usually free of snow, have slight climbing difficulties ( I ) and are somewhat exposed in places. Another way to climb is the partially marked climb from Schobertörl ( 2898 m ) over the northeast ridge, crossing the Kleinschober ( 3125 m ).
