The Tauernkogel (also Felber Tauernkogel) is a mountain, 2,988 m (AA), in the Venediger Group of Austria's High Tauern. It lies west of the Felber Tauern and the border between the states of Salzburg and Tyrol runs over the summit. It may be climbed on a difficult mountain tour via a steep snowfield in about 1.½ hours from the St. Pöltner Hut.[2]
The Felbertauern Tunnel on state route 108 runs under the pass.
