Wikipedia

The Vordere Brandjochspitze is a peak, 2,559 m (AA) high, in the Nordkette in the Karwendel range and is one of its highest and most striking peaks. In its immediate vicinity to the north-northwest is its sister summit, the Hintere Brandjochspitze, which is about 40 metres higher. To the south a prominent arête runs over to the Brandjochkreuz (2,268 m (AA)) and the Achselkopf (1,560 m (AA)) and down to the Innsbruck quarter of Hötting. To the east, the main ridge of the Nordkette runs over to Frau Hitt.
