Description of mountain:
Gamsspitzl is a less prominent three-thousander located on a long ridge stretching north from the summit plateaus of Wilder Freiger. Due to its easy access—from the trail to the renowned Wilder Freiger, it is just about 20 minutes of not overly difficult scree ascent to the top—it is relatively well-visited. It is most frequently climbed by hikers continuing toward Wilder Freiger or the alpine huts above the Übeltalferner glacier.
Unlike most approach routes to peaks in the Hochstubai range, the path to Gamsspitzl is fully marked, offering a pleasant opportunity for an ascent above 3,000 meters in the attractive High Stubai environment. The highest point, marked by a pole with a small statue of Jesus, provides fine views toward Wilder Freiger and the ridge continuation leading to its summit area, as well as toward the eastern and northern parts of the Hochstubai group.
