Naunspitze
Sign in to saveThe Naunspitze is a peak in the Zahmer Kaiser, the northern ridge of the Kaiser Mountains in Tyrol, Austria. Viewed from the west, it is the first independent summit on the main crest. To the south it falls sharply away and, to the north, ends abruptly in a steep rock face that towers over the Inn valley near Ebbs. The next peak along the main ridge to the east is the Petersköpfl (1745m), which is separated from the Naunspitze by a small wind gap.
