Long-distance hike Carnic altitude trail. Stage 2: Sillianer Hütte- Obstansersee Hütte

Sillian / Carnic Main Crest

Dream route along old war ruins. We are grateful to be able to experience this dream scenery peacefully. Past the Hochgräntensee lake, with its old war cemetery, we hike to the Obstanser hut. A refreshment stop is a must, if only for the view of the Sesto Dolomites and the Grossglockner.

Description

Starting point is the Leckfeldalm and from Sillianer Hütte we follow the well signposted route no. 403 heading east, past the Hornischegg and Hollbrucker Spitze to Hochgräntensee. There is a war cemetery on its northern banks. We proceed via several hairpin bends to the north side of the summit of the Demut, continuing to the summit of the Eisenreich. Just before the summit of the Eisenreich, route 403 branches off to the left at Obstansersee Hütte.
