Climbing route
Spiegelkogel can be climbed from the towns of Vent and from Obergurgl in the upper Ötztal. You do not need any special equipment to climb it, but there are exposed sections on the summit ridge. The approach from Vent was taken by the first ascendants but is now uncommon. The approach from Obergurgl is via the Ramolhaus mountain hostel at 3006 m altitude. Plan 5 hours from the village to the summit and 3 hours from the hut.
