Hochwand (2,719 m) is a mountain in the Mieming Range in Tyrol, Austria.
It is most famous for its impressive north face, which tumbles for 1,300 m down into the Gaistal valley below. The normal route to the summit is from the south, where the slopes are less steep. It is a very difficult climb from all sides and much scrambling is required to reach the summit. Climbs usually begin at the village of Wildermieming.
There's a demanding alpine trail (T5) leading to the summit.
The nearest mountain hut is Neue Alplhütte located 1 764m/5 789ft SSE of the summit.
