The Serles , also called Waldrastspitze in the Alpine Club Guide , is a mountain between the Stubaital and Wipptal in Tyrol / Austria with a height of 2,717 m. Due to its three-tier construction and its dominant view from Innsbruck , the mountain is also called the " high altar of Tyrol ". The name "King Serles", which is also common, goes back to an old folk legend. According to legend, the main peak of the Serles is an evil king petrified as a punishment, the two secondary peaks are his also petrified sons, according to other versions also other family members.
etymology
For the meaning and origin of the name "Serles", the following is a text on a notice board on the Serlesjöchl:
" The sun rises and falls over the Serles twice in winter in Mieders . It is therefore not surprising that the summit takes its name from the Ladin name for sun 'Suredl'. Because 'Suredl' also means 'sun stone', the entire summit became Serleskamm, which stretches from the Serles summit over approx. 10 kilometers to the Pinnisjoch, formerly also called Sonnenstein. The name Sonnenstein has remained until today, but only the mountain in front of the Serles summit. "
