Mittagskogel circular route

Nature adventure path

Information

Long, alpine, and demanding route to the "volcano" above Faaker See.
A crossing of the Mittagskogel ranks among the major routes in the Villach area. It ascends over the west side via partly steep paths to the summit. The descent over the Bertahütte is then somewhat easier.
