Tyrol: Fascination Mountains

It looks as if one of the famous pyramids from Egypt has been beamed into the middle of the Alps: The Guffert stands prominently in front of the Rofan mountains, but its peak towers lonely into the sky. It's popular with climbers because the view is magnificent and the terrain is challenging. If you are fit enough for the south ridge, you'll be thrilled by the wildness of the area. Although the people of Munich impertinently claim that the Guffert is one of their local mountains, it's actually one of the many Tyrolean alpine challenges; a climbing classic with guaranteed far-reaching views.
