It runs northeastwards and borders on the Northeast and North Faces of the Grossglockner. The latter faces are bounded by the Northwest Ridge, part of the main Glockner crest, which runs over the <i>Grögerschneid</i>, 3,660&#160;m (12,010&#160;ft), and the ridge elevations of <a href="/wiki/Glocknerhorn" class="mw-redirect" title="Glocknerhorn">Glocknerhorn</a>, 3,680&#160;m (12,070&#160;ft), and <a href="/wiki/Teufelshorn_(Glockner_Group)" title="Teufelshorn (Glockner Group)">Teufelshorn</a>, 3,677&#160;m (12,064&#160;ft), to the <i>Untere Glocknerscharte</i>, 3,598&#160;m (11,804&#160;ft), which connects to the 3,721&#160;m (12,208&#160;ft) high <a href="/wiki/Glocknerwand" title="Glocknerwand">Glocknerwand</a>. </p><p>A prominent ridge, the <i>Stüdlgrat</i>, named after the <a href="/wiki/Prague" title="Prague">Prague</a> Alpinist Johann Stüdl (1839–1925), runs from the Grossglockner away to the southwest.

Hohenwart's reports did not tell clearly that they had not touched the highest point but Bishop Salm (who had reached the <i>Adlersruhe</i> rock at 3,454&#160;m (11,332&#160;ft)) was informed. Dissatisfied, he invited another, even bigger expedition the next year. </p><p>On 28 July 1800, 62 people, among them the pedagogue <a href="/wiki/Franz_Michael_Vierthaler" title="Franz Michael Vierthaler">Franz Michael Vierthaler</a> and the botanist <a href="/wiki/David_Heinrich_Hoppe" title="David Heinrich Hoppe">David Heinrich Hoppe</a>, started again into the Leitertal valley. Four peasants and carpenters (the "Glockners" and two others who are not known) did a track in the snow, had installed fixed ropes at some steeper sections up to the end of the Glocknerleitl, and even built a second refuge, called Hohenwarte Hut. The vanguard reached the Kleinglockner peak, however, according to the expedition records by the <a href="/wiki/Dellach_im_Drautal" title="Dellach im Drautal">Dellach</a> priest Franz Joseph Horasch (Orasch), only the four guides and Mathias Hautzendorfer, the local priest of the <a href="/wiki/Rangersdorf" title="Rangersdorf">Rangersdorf</a> parish, were able to cross the <i>Obere Glocknerscharte</i> and climb the Grossglockner summit.
