The Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze (formerly in the Oberstdorfer parlance Hammerspitze and in the Kleinwalsertal parlance Schüsser ) is a 2260 m , according to Austrian surveys 2259 m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Allgäu Alps .
Location and surroundings
The Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze is located northwest of the Fiderepass ( 2035 m ) and the Fiderepasshütte ( 2067 m ) and southeast of the Walser Hammerspitze ( 2170 m ). In the connecting ridge to the latter, the summit of the Hochgehrenspitze rises (also northwestern Hammerspitze , 2251 m ).
Naming
Due to the different names in the Kleinwalsertal in the northeast and the Oberstdorf side in the east, the naming situation of the mountains previously known as Hammerspitze and Schüsser was complicated. Therefore, in July 2013 the mountains were officially renamed to improve the situation, for example in the case of emergency calls. The German Schüsser and the Austrian Hammerspitze became the Walser Hammerspitze and the German Hammerspitze and the Austrian Schüsser became the Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze .
In the official German and Austrian maps, the two mountains were named the other way around. In the Bavarian national map the combination was Hammerspitze ( 2260 m ) and Schüsser ( 2170 m ), in the Austrian map consequently: Schüsser ( 2259 m ) and Hammerspitze ( 2170 m ).
In the revised border description of 1844 it says: "against the Schisser ... about the Schisser, who is called Hammerspitz on the Vorarlberg side." While the term hammer is an expression of the Walser German and has the meaning 'rock', the root word is Schisser Coming from the Allgäu region . It means 'the stone throwing down' and is used, for example, in the Schißer Kar in Warmatsgund on the German side. However, “Schisser” is used in the border description for the entire ridge between the Kanzelwand and the Fiderepass . Thaddäus Steiner suspects that perhaps on the Austrian side a distinction was made earlier between hammer head , i.e. the shooter, and hammer tips .
Climbs
There is no trail leading to the Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze. You can reach it with surefootedness over the ridge from the Walser Hammerspitze . Climbing difficulties in the second degree must be mastered. Sparse markings help with orientation. When climbing from the Fiderepasshütte, the difficulty is III. Degree.
