In the south of Lienz rises the Rauchkofel with its transmission mast, visible from afar. At around 1,900 metres, it towers above the surrounding mountains, but the summit is well worth the effort. Once you reach the top, you are rewarded with impressive views in all directions: from the Pustertal Valley to the Iseltal Valley, across the Lienz valley floor to the Mölltal and Drautal valleys, and in particular the peaks of the Lienz Dolomites in the south and the Schober Group in the north.
Once you reach the top, you will find a seating area, a table and information boards. Not long ago, an artistically designed cross made of larch wood was also erected there, with a guardian kneeling in front of it, representing the story behind the ‘Kreidenfeuer’ (chalk fire).

Equipment
Basic equipment for mountain hiking includes sturdy hiking boots with a good tread, a 30-35 liter backpack, and functional clothing based on the layering principle, including sufficient spare clothes. Essential items are rain, cold, and sun protection, adequate fluids and food, as well as a first-aid kit and a charged mobile phone. A map or a GPS device supports orientation.
The information serves as a guideline and does not claim to be exhaustive. Equipment must always be adapted to the planned route, weather conditions, season, natural hazards, environmental influences, and personal needs.
