Lausköpfe

The Lausköpfe are a group of three peaks in the Hochkönigstock range of the Berchtesgadener Alps. They sit along a ridge running southwest from the Lamkopf. The first peak holds a weather station, while the second, at 2,190 metres, bears a summit cross and logbook. The third peak lies just a few metres east of the second.

Climbers reach the summits by a marked trail from the Filzensattel via the Pichlalm, crossing the mountain’s south-eastern flank. The route winds through alpine meadows before tackling steeper ground near the top. The final section follows the narrow ridge linking all three peaks.

At the highest point, visitors find the weather station on the first summit and the summit cross with its logbook on the second. The third offers little more than a narrow stance and sweeping views of the surrounding peaks. The route back follows the same path, returning through open slopes dotted with dwarf pines and edelweiss.
