First ascent unknown

The Hochwaidkopf is an extremely eye-catching rock head near the Rofelewand in the Kaunergrat in the Ötztal Alps . It is higher and more rugged than the two neighboring peaks of the "first row", Rappenkopf and Rosskopf. It is the culmination point of a Gratzug that starts above the Arzler Alm and continues over it to the Rofelewand. Its extremely difficult and regular-looking record lines give it a distinctive look. On its plateau-like summit there is a stone man with a marker pole.
