HUBEN FOOTBALL PITCH -> Towards Alpengasthof am Feuerstein -> Junction Hahlkogelhaus -> HAHLKOGEL
Suitable for those free from dizziness, sure-footed, and experienced in alpine climbing; very good physical condition, alpine experience, and mountain equipment (see under Equipment), sometimes alpine safety gear, good weather conditions recommended Please check the current weather report
Appropriate equipment such as breathable and weather-appropriate outdoor clothing is required for all hikes and routes. Carrying a first aid kit, a mobile phone, and possibly a hiking map, as well as sufficient provisions for hikes without refreshment options, is necessary.
Starting directly from the sports field, follow the forest road towards the Alpengasthof am Feuerstein, from which you repeatedly enjoy a magnificent valley view. (Alternatively, the Sagenweg can also be chosen) After about 30 minutes of walking, you reach a fork and follow the signs to Hahlkogelhaus on the right. The narrow mountain path ascends steeply. Over a section secured with a wire rope, you reach a beautiful viewing platform (bench). From there, the path leads more gently through larch forests to Ebenalm and slightly downhill shortly before the Hahlkogelhaus (not operated). At a small shed shortly before the hut, follow the signs towards "Hahlkogel, Pollesalm, Wartkogelsee" and gently ascending over the beautiful alpine meadows to the next fork. There turn right uphill following the sign "Hahlkogel - Wartkogelsee" and at the next sign turn right and continue in steep switchbacks to the connecting ridge between the Greater and Lesser Hahlkogel. Head southeast and do easy scrambling to the summit.
Travel comfortably and safely by train. The final stop or exit point is ÖTZTAL Station. Afterwards, travel conveniently and quickly by public transport or local taxi companies through the entire valley to your destination. The current bus schedule is available at: http://fahrplan.vvt.at
