View into the upper Lavant Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

From up here you have a great view over the tree tops down into the Lavant Valley. A great place to watch the clouds descend into the valley when inversed.

Cattle Gate for Hikers

Highlight • Rest Area

This gate is a protection for hikers, especially when there are calves in the pasture. Was it built for this? At least it helped us when the young bull and cow with calf ran straight towards us.
In this case, the only thing that helps is to wait and, at the next opportunity, walk quietly and at a great distance around the herd.

Wooden gate on mountain trail

Highlight • Structure

In order to get from one side of the fence to the other side, such "locks" are installed on every path. A great idea. So nothing stands in the way of hiking pleasure

Lake Klippitz

Highlight • Lake

The Klippitzsee was established in 2002 as a storage lake for the snow cannons of the ski area. Since it has a beautiful, near-natural shore, it is a popular hiking destination in summer. Tables and benches invite you to rest around the lake.

Hohenwart Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

The Hohenwart summit cross is located in the immediate vicinity of the Klippitzsee. It's worth it for the view alone.

August 16, 2024,Vom Hohenwart zurück nach Klippitztörl

A wonderful panorama and a mountain lake welcome you on the Hohenwart.
From there, an idyllic path leads through dense forest until it is rocky and leads to the Grünhütte with an unobstructed view.
Unfortunately, this seems to be permanently closed.
The place does offer a refreshing spring with very tasty water and a shady bench in absolute silence.
