Auf den Gipfel der Hohen Veitsch

The area of the Hohe Veisch is considered a hiking and ski touring paradise. Countless hiking tours lead to the plateau of this mountain massif - here the most famous route from the Brunnalm via the serpentine path to the Graf Meran Haus and on to the summit of the Hohe Veitsch. ATTENTION. When planning and carrying out a ski or snowshoe tour, please always pay attention to the current avalanche situation report of the corresponding region.  
The starting point of the tour is the parking lot at the Brunnalm. Here you follow the mark 465 to the Graf Meran Haus and further on to the Hohe Veitsch. Return the same route.
