Location, neighboring mountains, structure and summit

Zemmgrund with horn back and III. Hornspitze, flanked by IV. And I. Hornspitze, on the left the Schwarzenstein- Stock

The Hornspitzen rise between the rear Zemmgrund north and the Weißenbachtal south.

They form a section of the Zillertal main ridge . The Trattenjoch  (or Innerjoch, approx. 3000) is bordered to the west by the Turnerkamp  ( 3418  m above sea level ), a wide mountain range, at the Schwarzenbachscharte  ( 3020  m ) to the east by the Schwarzenstein  ( 3368  m ) with its secondary peaks.

In the main ridge of the Zillertal Alps lie west to east, with the side ridges:

  • Vordere Hornspitze , 3148  m slm , south of Fünfter Hornspitz (Monte Corno)  3145  m slm , ( V. Hornspitze stands for both peaks), with the southward ridge over the joint notch to the jointnock  ( 2882  m ) between the upper Weißenbach with Gögenalmbach and Weißenbacher Mitterbach
  • VI. Hornspitze , 3198  m above sea level A. respectively the fourth Hornspitz , 3195  m slm ,
  • Second Hornspitz , 3221  m slm (or 3222  m slm , II. Hornspitze ). Here the III. Hornspitze (Third Hornspitz, Berlin Peak) , 3253  m above sea level. A. ( 3265  m slm ) as the highest peak of the group of Hornbacks , which runs northwards between Hornkeesbach and the stream of Schwarzensteinkees into the Zemmgrund ( Am Horn  2647  m above sea level )
  • I. Hornspitze , 3172  m above sea level. A. ( 3137  m slm ), with the southward Hantigen ridge over Breiten Kopf ( 2855  m slm ), Schwarzenbachtörl to Scharhaggen ( 2645  m slm ), Hantige-Klamm-Spitz ( 2645  m slm , Hantigenklammspitze) and Schafbretterspitz ( 2515  m slm ) to Schönberg  ( 2275  m slm ) between Mitterbach and Luttacher Schwarzenbach ; the Mitterbachjoch lies between the II and I Hornspitze

In Italian, all peaks can also be found as I °  to V ° Corno di Ghega

Glaciation

The massif is glaciated on all sides, but not the peaks. The Hornkees , which has now split into two partial glaciers, extends northwest to the Turnerkamp , to the northeast the Schwarzensteinkees , on the south side the Gögenferner , the Mitterbachkees and the Schwarzenbachkees are already in the respective valleys as glacier remains .

natural reserve

On the Austrian side, the group belongs to the Zillertal Alps Nature Park .

Paths and huts

The peaks can be climbed from the north from the Zemmgrund (support point Berliner Hütte ), from the south from Lappach and the Chemnitzer Hütte (Neveser-Joch-Hütte) and Gögenalm , from Weißenbach as well as from Luttach . The climbs follow the valleys or ridges and are at least high alpine .
