The Zuckerhütl is a mountain in Tyrol, Austria. At 3,505 metres, it is the highest peak of the Stubai Alps.
It derives its name, translated in English as 'sugerloaf', from the graceful snow covered form of its east side. Its west side, however, is far more rocky and unfriendly. In nearby Italy it is known as Pan di Zùcchero, also meaning 'sugerloaf'.
