instructions

From the Pöllinger Hütte, the ÖAV hiking trail no. 338 leads directly to the Wolfsberger Hütte. From the refuge, the trail leads over the large Saualpe to the Ladinger Spitz. It is the highest mountain peak of the Saualpe at 2079 meters. Continue over the ridge and enjoy the fantastic panorama as you hike up to the Gertrusk (2,044 m). On the gentle alpine meadows and past stone ovens, the trail continues over the Kienberg and the Forstalpe to the Geierkogel (ÖAV trail no. 308). This is where the high-altitude hike ends and the last section of the route leads downhill from the Geierkogel to the Naturfreundehaus Klippitztörl.
Although the path from here to the accommodation at Hotel Hochegger is marked as a hiking trail, it is not signposted as the "Panoramaweg Südalpen". A well-signposted path leads from the Naturfreundehaus to the Klippitztörl parking lot.

10 recommendations from the ÖAV

As an outdoor sport, mountain hiking offers great opportunities for health, community and adventure. The following recommendations from the alpine associations are designed to make mountain hikes as safe and enjoyable as possible.

1. healthy in the mountains

Mountain hiking is an endurance sport. The positive stress stimuli for the heart and circulation require good health and a realistic self-assessment. Avoid time pressure and choose a pace that ensures no one in the group gets out of breath.

2. careful planning

Hiking maps, guide books, the Internet and experts provide information about the length, altitude difference, difficulty and current conditions. Always tailor tours to the group! Pay particular attention to the weather forecast, as rain, wind and cold increase the risk of accidents.

3. complete equipment

Adapt your equipment to your tour and make sure your rucksack is light. Rain, cold and sun protection should always be in your backpack, as well as a first aid kit and cell phone (Euro emergency number 112). A map or GPS will help you find your way.

4. suitable footwear

Good hiking boots protect and relieve your feet and improve your sure-footedness! When making your choice, look for a perfect fit, non-slip tread sole, waterproofness and low weight.

5. sure-footedness is the key

Falls as a result of slipping or stumbling are the most common cause of accidents! Be aware that too much speed or tiredness can severely impair your surefootedness and concentration. Watch out for falling rocks: by walking carefully, you can avoid falling rocks.

6. stay on marked trails

In pathless terrain, the risk of losing your bearings, falling and falling rocks increases. Avoid shortcuts and return to the last known point if you lose your way. Often underestimated and very dangerous: steep old snowfields!

7. take regular breaks

Taking a break at the right time helps you to relax, enjoy the scenery and socialize. Eating and drinking are necessary to maintain performance and concentration. Isotonic drinks are ideal thirst quenchers. Muesli bars, dried fruit and cookies satisfy hunger on the way.

8. responsibility for children

Make sure that variety and playful discovery are at the forefront for children! In passages where there is a risk of falling, one adult can only supervise one child. Very exposed tours that require prolonged concentration are not suitable for children.

9. small groups

Small groups ensure flexibility and allow for mutual help. Inform familiar people about the destination, route and return. Stay together in the group. Beware of lone hikers: even minor incidents can lead to serious emergencies.

10 Respect for nature and the environment

To protect mountain nature: do not leave any waste behind, avoid noise, stay on the paths, do not disturb wild and grazing animals, leave plants untouched and respect protected areas. Use public transport or form car pools to get there.
