Facts and practical information

Wagendrischelhorn is a mountain of Bavaria, Germany. At 2251 metres in height, it is the third highest peak of the Reiter Alpe in the Berchtesgaden Alps after the Stadelhorn and the Großes Häuselhorn. The Wagendrischelhorn stands in the middle of the three highest peaks of the Reiter Alpe and its summit is the easiest to access. It separates the 2055 metre high Mayrbergscharte from the southern Stadelhorn and an unnamed crenel from the northern Großes Häuselhorn at a height of around 2125 metres. Seen from the Ramsau, the Wagendrischelhorn presents itself as a strikingly rounded rock peak and a distinguishing feature for the location and the mountain range. ()
