A mountain in the Rätikon , part of the so-called Galina group , is referred to as the zäwasheilspitz (also: zäwasheilspitze or zewas-Heilspitze , 1778 m above sea level , partly also indicated as 1770, 1773, 1777, 1784 m above sea level ) , which is located in the municipality of Frastanz and Nenzing .
Surname
Zahnheilspitz is a combination of the greetings : Zawas and Heil und -spitz . Tough! or Zewas! is used in the region as a generally applicable greeting by the population in the sense of hello everyone! or hail together! but also hello! used. This may be derived from: Servus ! in Seawas! too zew! / Zewas! . Salvation! in this context means something like greet you! or lucky you! (see also: Berg Heil ). The supplement -spitz is used in this context for the mountain peak .
Werner Vogt has documented the parcel with Wisle in his extensive work: Vorarlberger Flurnamenbuch in this area .
It has not been clarified whether the zäwasheilspitz (Wisle) actually has to be viewed as an independent summit or as a double summit together with the Gurtisspitze , which is only 170 m away as the crow flies . In official works, the name zäwasheilspitz or zäwasheilspitze does not appear, but is used among hikers. The inscription on a plaque by the privately built summit cross reads: zwas Heil Bergheil .

The vegetation consists of dense grass and some shrubs and fir trees etc. The summit is partly free of vegetation and offers an excellent all-round view.
