Like a boulder tossed aside, the Grimming stands isolated to the east of the Dachstein, and its imposing appearance makes it one of the attractions of Styria. It consists mainly of Dachstein limestone and is a popular destination for climbers. Because of its exposed position, the Grimming played an important role in the surveying of Austria: a wooden survey marker was placed on the summit as early as 1822.
The Gosaukamm is a small mountain massif in the Austrian Dachstein Mountains. The border between the Austrian states of Salzburg and Upper Austria runs along the rough mountain ridge. The Gosaukamm is a popular destination for extreme skiers in the winter due to its steep slopes. Since the danger of avalanches is quite high though, it is recommended only for skilled skiers familiar with the area.
The Furgler, just over 3000 m high, is part of the Samnaun Alps in Tyrol, Austria. It is one of the most visited mountains of the region. The lifts of the nearby ski resort Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis are often used when attempting to climb to the summit. The Furgler is also a popular destination among ski mountaineers.
The Bischofsmütze, German for “bishop's hat”, owes its name to the distinctive shape of the double summit. The border between the Archduchy of Austria and the Archdiocese of Salzburg ran along the mountain, until the beginning of the 19th century. The mountain was said to keep watch over the Eastern Pongau region, which was administered by the Archbishop of Salzburg. Even though in 1993 the Bischofsmütze lost a 200 meter cliff wall in a massive rock slide, which changed the mountain's appearance significantly, it remains a popular destination for mountain climbers since the first ascent, made in 1879.
