From the village of Afritz via Verditzer Straße you reach Lärchenboden, where there are plenty of parking spaces. From there this moderate hike leads over the idyllic Schwarzsee up to Palnock (1,901 meters). Along beautiful forest paths, hiking trail no. 27 leads up to Schwarzsee. After circling this small lake, you can refresh yourself at the Schwarzsee hut, which is open from mid-May to early October. Then it continues northwest towards Palnock. Past smaller ponds near Frießner Alpe, the path leads up to the summit, which is marked by a stone monument. Here you can enjoy wonderful views (e.g. Millstätter See), before returning to the Schwarzsee hut. Then take hiking trail no. 28, where after about 1 kilometer you turn right towards Steinhauser hut. Shortly after the hut you reach Verditzer Straße again, along which you ascend back to the starting point.
