Located on the edge of long ridge traversing east from Habicht, it is a popular scrambling peak and can get very crowded in the summer. The summit provides excellent view of the Stubai Alps and Zillertal Alps.[2]

It is accessible via the Serlesjöchl:

• from Matrei am Brenner in Wipptal via Maria Waldrast (the easiest route),[2]
• from Fulpmes and Kampl in Stubaital via Wildeben (which is just as easy, if it was not for the extra altitude to climb).
