Description

Climb up to hut Kerschbaumer Alm.  Starting from the Luggauer Bridge (between Leisach and Thal, on the road from Lienz in direction of Sillian) follow the marked path above the quarry to get to Leisacher Almbach River. Now the trail leads up to the Dapra Cross, and from there across more flat terrain inbound by the right mountainside. After about two hours, the valley bends to the left. Follow the path to a large moraine, which opens up access to the Kühbodentörl gap. From there follow the trail, keeping to the right, in direction of Hallebachtörl. Then continue across ridges and troughs down to the Kerschbaumer Alm. Climbers with good fitness can additionally tackle the ascent up to the Lienz local mountain, the Spitzkofel.
