Steinfalk (German: Stone Halcon) (elevation 2,347 m (7,700 ft)) is a summit in the Falken Group, a subgroup of the Karwendel range in the Austrian state of Tyrol.

Alpinism

The Steinfalk can be reached from the Eng Valley passing the Falken Hut (Falkenhütte) as an alpine hike with some climbing parts (UIAA I). It is the only peak in the Falken Group with relatively easy access (except normal alpine hike to Mahnkopf).
