Hundegg, 2,079 mPhoto: Tourismusverband Großarltal, Tourismusverband Großarltal
Summit hike to the local mountain of Hüttschlag, the Hundegg.
The hike starts in the center of Hüttschlag. You cross the Ache and hike quite steeply up to the Hundegg. At the beginning you always have a view of the Hüttschlag Wall, where in 2009 the via ferrata "Kupfergeist" was established. The via ferrata "Franzl" also leads through the Hüttschlag Wall. For all less experienced climbers, there is also the practice via ferrata "Gletschergoas". The path first leads through forest, then over beautiful alpine meadows to the Hundegg. Here the panoramic view is simply unique. In front of you is the Draugstein, which majestically watches over the Ellmautal. Behind it, the Dachstein mountains already appear. To the south, you can see the Hohe Tauern with the first three-thousand-meter peaks. In the other direction, you can see the Hochkönig as well as the Tennen and Hagen mountains. After the summit rest, you return on the same path back to Hüttschlag, where you can then really recharge in a guesthouse.
