Mentioned below description copied from previous route in HBM :

Hochstaufen is a prominent rocky mountain and a well-known eye-catcher that rises between Bad Reichenhall, Piding and Anger (Berchtesgadener Land). It belongs to the Staufen massif and is the easternmost mountain in the Chiemgau Alps. From the summit you have a good panoramic view, especially to the Berchtesgaden Alps.

The name Staufen comes from the Middle High German ("stouf") and means "steeply towering rock". From about 1350 to 1810, the border between Bavaria and Salzburg crossed the ridge. Mining continued until the middle of the 18th century, the most famous being the Doktor-Oswald tunnel, which was only 60 metres below the summit. Lead and zinc were mined [wikipedia].

Ascent: The ascent is T3 and requires scrambling upto grade I+ in exposed sections. It's not suitable for beginners. Sure-footedness and no fear of heights are required. There are sometimes steel ropes and hooks to assist.
