Kreuzjoch: Top of Kitzbüheler Alpen!

As December 2025 remains stubborn with unusually low precipitation, creativity is still required to find interesting ski tours. One exciting option is to visit the highest peak of an entire and well-known mountain range, the Kitzbüheler Alps. That peak is Kreuzjoch (2.558 m), located in the southwestern part of the range and very close to the large ski resort of the ZillertalArena. Under good snow conditions, Kreuzjoch can be done as a proper ski tour from the south. With the current situation, however, the most reasonable choice was to start at the Wiesenalm (1.300 m) and ascend via the ski resort’s slopes, preferably the (still) closed ones, to avoid skier traffic as much as possible. The tour is a long one: more than 7 km of ascent are required to reach the highest point of the ski area, called Übergangsjoch at around 2.500 m. From there, a short staircase leads up to a small viewing platform, and beyond that a beautiful ridge of roughly 500 meters in length awaits. While not fully exposed, it does require sure-footedness and concentration. The summit itself is surprisingly flat, with a bench and a 360° panorama. Sitting almost in the center of our skitouring area of focus, countless familiar summits can be identified in every direction. Apart from the ridge section, the descent is a classic ski-piste run fortunately on very well-prepared slopes, despite the high number of visitors in the resort. Reaching the highest peak of a mountain range always feels special, especially under such perfect Kaiserwetter. Enjoy the tour!
