The Ahornspitze is a 2973 m high mountain in the Zillertal Alps, south-east above Mayrhofen (Tyrol, Austria). The Ahornspitze has two peaks, the northern peak at 2960 m and the southern peak at 2973 m, with the summit cross on the lower northern peak. The mountain is not glaciated, only on the east flank there is currently a strongly inclined firn field called Schneekarl. The neighboring peak along the southern ridge is the Popbergspitze (2891 m). To the east, the terrain slopes down over the Lahnkar to the Bodengrund, a side valley of the Zillergrund. To the north, the Ahornspitze connects directly to the Zillergrund via several cirques, to the west the terrain falls over the Popbergkar down into the Stilluptal. The Ahornspitze is thus at the northern end of the Ahornkamm in an exposed position and is therefore a popular panoramic mountain.
