At 2522  m, the Hohe Göll is the highest peak in the Göll massif on the eastern edge of the Berchtesgaden Alps . The border between Berchtesgadener Land in Bavaria ( Germany ) and Tennengau in Salzburg ( Austria ) runs over its summit . The Hohe Göll, made of Dachstein limestone , towers over 2000 meters over the Salzach Valley and was described by Ludwig Purtscheller as a "landmark in the magnificent mountain range of the old Salzach city of Salzburg ". One of the most famous representations of the mountain from the Bavarian side is the Göll reflection in the Hintersee .

Geographical location

The Hohe Göll is located in the Berchtesgaden Alps around 6 km (as the crow flies ) southeast of Berchtesgaden and west of Kuchl . The south-eastern secondary peaks of the Hohen Göll are Kammerschneid ( 2306  m ) and Hinteres Freieck ( 2308  m ), in the south is the Große Archenkopf ( 2391  m ), the south-western neighbors are Brettriedel ( 2344  m ) and Hohes Brett ( 2340  m ). The Hohe Göll is connected to the mountain spur of the Kehlstein (its 1,820  m high north-west foothills) via the Mannlgrat .

Tourist development

The Hohe Göll was climbed early by local hunters. The theology student Valentin Stanig from Salzburg was the first tourist to reach the summit in 1800 from Eckerfirst , having climbed the Grossglockner and Watzmann the month before . He carried out surveying work at the summit, the result of 7812 Parisian feet ( 2538  m ) was published by Franz Michael Vierthaler on September 13, 1800 in the Salzburger Intellektivenblatt . Before leaving Salzburg in 1802, Stanig wrote a detailed report on his mountain tour for his patron Karl von Moll , which was published in the magazine of the German and Austrian Alpine Association in 1881.

The first iron summit cross was placed on the morning of July 12, 1885, after 31 boys had brought it to the mountaintop the night before after an eight-hour march.

Climbs

  • Salzburger Steig from the Purtschellerhaus (approx. 2½ hours) via the Schuster Route or the chimney in front of the chimney ( 2245  m ). The Schuster Route in particular is exposed in many places. In the most difficult places there are mostly short rope insurances (possibly with a via ferrata set). Difficulty level up to II. Surefootedness and a head for heights are absolutely necessary.
  • Mannlgrat from the Kehlsteinhaus (approx. 3 hours): interesting via ferrata.
  • From the Schneibsteinhaus or Carl-von-Stahl-Haus (approx. 4½ hours): via the Jägerkreuz to the Hohe Brett ( 2340  m ). Continue to the Großer Archenkopf ( 2391  m ) and on a ridge below the Kleiner Archenkopf to the summit.
  • Alpeltalsteig of Vorderbrand on Alpeltalhütte : past the Alpeltalköpfen ( 1924  m ) through the whorls , the Great Archenkopf ( 2,391  m ) are let south. Difficult to descend as it mostly leads over sharp terrain. This path is also a popular ski tour .
  • Many climbing routes in the middle and upper difficulty range lead through the western wall of the Hohen Göll, which closes the Endstal and can be reached in a three-quarter-hour walk from the Scharitzkehlalm . The "Alte Westwand" (Brandenstein Passage) is the easiest of these climbs, it does not exceed the upper third degree on the UIAA scale. The more difficult "funnel routes" are also popular. Berchtesgaden mountain pioneer Josef Aschauer had a spectacular success with the “Great Funnel” as early as 1922. The tour has unusual climbing points in the lower level of difficulty V and is still an often used alpine rock climb today. The west wall leads all to about 500 m below the highest point of the mountain. They are therefore of little importance as independent summit climbs. The mountaineers usually rappel down the Brandensteinführe to the entrance or return to the Endstal via the popularly known Steftensteig. The trail along this path is sometimes difficult to find and has parts of difficulty II that have to be mastered on the descent. However, if you don't want to miss out on a summit experience after climbing the wall, you can climb to the highest point via the Mannlgrat or the Göllleiten.
