The Roggelskopf (also Rogelskopf ) is 2284 m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Lechquellen Mountains in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg .
topography
The Roggelskopf is the dominant mountain of the upper Klostertal and the local mountain of the villages of Dalaas and Braz . It is in front of the main ridge of the Lechquellengebirge with the Rote Wand to the south and therefore slopes down to the south with steep rock faces towards the Klostertal. To the north a pronounced ridge runs over the 2069 m high Gwurfjoch towards the main ridge. To the west of this ridge lies the Masonalpe at approx. 1500 m , to the east of the summit the Heubergalpe ( 1701 m ) and the Mustrinalpe ( 1450 m ). On the west ridge there is a 1704 m high pre-summit, the Bocksberg , with a striking rock window, the hollow stone . Another ridge runs to the southeast and carries the 2056 m high Heuberg .
ways
The most important base for climbing the Roggelskopf is the Freiburger Hütte approx. 3 kilometers to the northeast. From there and from the Masonalpe, marked hiking trails lead to the north ridge and from there via an insured trail ( difficulty UIAA I-II ) to the summit. The climbs over the southeast ridge (II-III), the east face (III-V) and the southwest face (II) are much more difficult.
history
The name "Roggelskopf" is derived from the Rhaeto-Romanic Rocca , German rock . In 1783 the mountain was first mentioned in a document as the "Roggelspitze". It was probably climbed by locals at an early age; the first documented ascent was carried out in 1875 by a Julius Gaßner from Bludenz.
