Brandenberg Alps

mountain range

river in Austria

Hochiss or Hochriss is a mountain in Tyrol, Austria. Rising some , it is the highest mountain of the Brandenberg Alps (otherwise known as Rofan) and is located near the tourist hot spot Achensee. Its steep north face is popular with rock climbers and its other slopes are a popular destination for hiking and paragliding as well as snowshoeing and ski touring in the winter.

The Guffert is a high, isolated, prominent limestone alpenstock in the Brandenberg Alps (Rofan) that, together with the Guffertstein, forms a twin peak. It lies north of Steinberg am Rofan. Because it projects above the Mangfall Mountains to the north by about 300 metres, the striking double peak is easily recognised from the Alpine Foreland, the Tegernsee and the Bavarian Prealps. <!-- Nahe der Gufferthütte (ehemals Ludwig-Aschenbrenner-Hütte) wurden in einer Felswand über einer Quelle etruskische Inschriften entdeckt, die auf ungefähr 400 v. Chr. datiert werden.

The Unnütze (also called the Unnutze) is a small mountain ridge northeast of the Achensee lake between Achenkirch and Steinberg am Rofan in the Brandenberg Alps in the Austrian state of Tyrol.
