Numerous signposted routes lead to the Stripsenkopf. As a rule they do not pose any problems and are therefore very frequently used. The normal route begins at the Griesner Alm (1,000 m) and leads via the Stripsenjochhaus to the summit with its wooden pavilion after about 2.5 hours. Considerably longer is the route from Kufstein via the Anton Karg Haus and the Hans Berger Haus to the Stripsenkopf in about 5 hours. In addition there is a climb from the Kohltal valley near Schwendt over the Tristecken and another route from Griesenau via the Scheibenbühelalm and the neighbouring Feldberg to the Stripsenkopf.
