The Hochfrottspitze is a mountain near Oberstdorf, Germany.[1] It is the highest German mountain in the Allgäu Alps at 2,649 metres (8,691 ft) high. The border with Austria is on its ridge.

With the Trettachspitze and Mädelegabel, the Hochfrottspitze forms a well known trio of peaks on the main ridge of the Allgäu Alps. It was first climbed in 1869 by Hermann von Barth. The route to the top is difficult to climb.[2] The mountain is made of dolomite.
