Crag features

The Steinernes Meer (literally 'Rocky Sea') is a high karst plateau in the Northern Limestone Alps.

The most distinctive and best-known peak in the Steinernes Meer is the Schönfeldspitze (2,653m) on the southern edge on the Pinzgau side, whose summit pyramid is also visible from Berchtesgaden and which is the emblem of the Berchtesgadener Land. The far less well known Selbhorn (2,655m) is slightly higher than the Schönfeldspitze and is the highest peak in the range. Other high and well-known summits include the Brandhorn (2,610 m), which forms the tripoint of the Berchtesgadener Land with the Pinzgau and Pongau regions; the Großer Hundstod (2,593m), the Funtenseetauern (2,578m) and the Breithorn (2,504m).

Approach notes

Maria Alm is a good location from which to access the peaks.
