The Hohe Perschitzkopf , a mountain with a height of 3125  m above sea level. A. , is located in the Schober group of the Hohe Tauern in Austria . The summit is located approx. 12 km as the crow flies north of Lienz in East Tyrol , exactly on the border line with Carinthia . The normal ascent is relatively easy to climb in dry and snow-free conditions. From the summit you can enjoy a beautiful view of the mountain world of the Schober group, especially to the Petzeck and Hochschober , in appropriate weather conditions .

First ascent

On July 26, 1890 Mathias Marcher and Ludwig Purtscheller reached the highest point. However, the summit was probably already entered for surveying purposes.

rise

The normal ascent to the Hohen Perschitzkopf is from the Wangenitzseehütte or the Adolf-Noßberger-Hütte to the Hohen Gradenscharte ( 2803  m ). Then the unmarked ascent runs over the south ridge in easy block climbing to the summit. The ascent is of difficulty I + and takes around 2.5 hours from the Wangenitzseehütte and around 3 hours from the Adolf-Noßberger-Hütte.

Minor peaks

The secondary peak, the Eastern Perschitzkopf ( 3,077  m above sea level ), can be climbed from the Wangenitzseehütte. The unmarked path leads over rubble heaps and block fields into the Perschitzscharte. Then the ascent leads over the northeast ridge in block climbing of difficulty I + to the summit.
