The Hochvogel, like the neighbouring peaks, consists of main dolomite rock, which makes its flanks quite brittle due to erosion.
The ascent of the Hochvogel via the normal route is classified as a mountain tour with climbing sections of difficulty UIAA I. The tour starts at the Prinz-Luitpold-Haus and you reach the summit in about 2.5 hours via the Balkenscharte and the snow field "Kalter Winkel". The route from the Lechtal, which led via the Bäumenheimer Weg, has been closed since 2014 due to acute danger of rockfall.
