The Hochwildstelle or Hohe Wildstelle is at 2747  m above sea level. A. the second highest mountain of the Schladminger Tauern as well as the highest mountain, which stands entirely in Styrian territory . The summit is located near the intersection of the three communities Aich , Michaelerberg-Pruggern and Schladming .

With its mighty rock faces, the step-like shaped summit block dominates the edge of the mountain that begins at the Ennstal , before it reaches an even greater height in Hochgolling .

The sharp south ridge falls just south of the widely visible summit cross to the Wildlochscharte ( 2488  m ) and then rises again to the Himmelreich mountain ( 2500  m ) before it crashes into the valley to the Preintalerhütte at the Schneider summit ( 2328  m ) .

The ridge, which is relatively sharp for a crystalline mountain range, runs roughly north-south. The area is very rich in water: There are also some mountain lakes and two large waterfalls in the vicinity of the very high massif .

Two marked routes lead to the Hochwildstelle:
