Speikkogel Summit Cross

Highlight (Segment) • Summit

Demanding steep section from the reservoir on the Speikkogel to the summit of the Speikkogel. Turn around a few times and enjoy the view / it's worth taking a breather! ;)

Speikkogel Summit (1,993 m)

Highlight • Summit

Easily accessible summit from the Salzstieglhaus (1,993m) with around 400m altitude, but very susceptible to wind as it lies above the tree line

November 2, 2024,Ameringkogel ⛰️ vom Salzstiegelhaus – über den Speikkogel

It was almost like I was in another world in the Lavanttal Alps. This time the tour took me to the highest peak of the Pack- and Stubalpe.

Exactly a year ago I was standing on the opposite side of the Rappoldkogel and trudging downhill through the snow.
