Schlicker Seespitze
From Schlick, the mountain appears like a deeply clefted rock massif with a huge southern arête crowned by the rock pinnacles of the Schlicker Manndln. From the other side, it resembles a crumbling, gashed peak rising above its scree slopes. The isolated Seejoch tower soars prominently over the Seejöchl saddle.
Ascents
From Seejöchl (reached from the Adolf Pichler Hut or Schlick) a well-marked grade I climb runs through boulder terrain up to the Seespitzscharte col between the Seespitze and Riepenwand, along the north arête and over it briefly to the summit. Climbers should know the rockfalls they are exposed to for the entire route.
In addition, there are several Alpine climbing routes of up to grade VII+, of which some were opened by well-known Alpinists like Ludwig Purtscheller, Andreas Orgler, and Mathias Rebitsch. The crossing from the Schlicker Manndl is popular; this grade IV route runs from the Schlicker Schartl up to the top.
