Schrammacher

The Schrammacher is a mountain in the Austrian state of Tyrol. At 3,410 or 3,411 m it is, after the Olperer, the second highest peak of the Tux ridge of the Zillertal Alps. With its horn shape and its steep and smooth northwest wall the mountain is imposing from several directions.

The Schrammacher is 4 km north-northwest of the Pfitscherjoch and 4 kilometers west of the Schlegeis reservoir at the head of the Zillertal. The Alpeiner Scharte to the north connects Schrammacher to Fußstein and Olperer, while to the west the adjacent summit is the Sagwandspitze , where the ridge turns south and continues to the Hohe Wand on the Austrian-Italian border. The East flank descends 1600 m into the ‘’Zamser Grund”” valley, while the 900 m high, steep northwest face, made of slabby rock, dominates the head of the Alpeiner and Vals valleys to the west. Three glaciers remain on the mountain: the Alpeiner Ferner at the bottom of the northwest wall, the Oberschrammacher Ferner on the southeast slope, and the large Stampflkees to the southwest.
