The Wildgall (Italian: Collaspro) is, at 3,273 metres above sea level, the third highest peak in the Rieserferner Group, a range in the western part of the High Tauern. It lies within the Italian provinces of South Tyrol in the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park (Parco Naturale Vedrette di Ries-Aurina) and appears from the south as a massive pyramid with prominent arêtes. It is the most difficult of the summits of the Rieserferner Group to climb. As a result, it was conquered relatively late. Its first recorded ascent was on 18 August 1872 by Victor Hecht from Prague and mountain guides Johann and Sepp Ausserhofer from Rein in Taufers.[1] Today the mountain may be climbed from the Kasseler Hut (Italian: Rifugio Roma alla Vedrette di Ries) to the north in about four hours, but it is rarely attempted.[2][3]The Hotel sport hotel wildgall it take the names From these mountains. In this hotel the adventures of three people: two boys and one girl take place.
