Access to starting point:
A) Through the Karawanks Tunnel, we drive into Austria, then continue driving on the Tauern highway, which we leave at the Villach bypass and continue driving towards the settlements Treffen am Ossiacher See, Afritz am See, Feld am See, and after the mentioned settlement we turn right towards the known ski center Bad Kleinkirchheim. We park on a large parking lot opposite the gas station.
B) From Styria or Carinthia, we first drive to Dravograd and then over the border crossing Vič into Austria, where we follow the signs for Klagenfurt / Celovec. Further, we drive on the so-called South highway, which we leave at Klagenfurt (direction Feldkirchen). Further, we drive on a regional road, by which we arrive at the already mentioned settlement. In Feldkirchen, we continue right in the direction of the mountain pass Turacher Höhe and drive past the settlements Himmelberg, Gnesau, Mitterdorf to the settlement Wiedweg, where we continue left towards the known ski center Bad Kleinkirchheim. We park on a large parking lot opposite the gas station.
Path description:
On the eastern edge of the parking lot, we will notice an asphalt footpath which after a few meters of walking by the stream brings us to a narrower asphalt road, where we notice signs for Talweg, Rottenstein and Kaiserburg. For some time we ascend on the asphalt road which leads us among houses, then we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue right in the direction of Waldtratte (left footpath to Wöllaner Nock). The path ahead, which continues on the road, crosses a ski slope and with a view of Bad Kleinkirchheim brings us into the forest, where it joins a somewhat wider road. We continue on the ascending macadam road, which soon makes a sharp left turn, after which there is a gate. We continue past the gate and on a relatively panoramic road ascend to the restaurant Bergrestaurant Waldtratte, which we reach after approximately one hour of walking from the starting point.
A little further ahead we come to a smaller junction, where we continue right on a wider macadam road. The path ahead leads us on a moderately steep road, which higher up crosses the ski slope several times and also crosses the footpath that leads towards the hut Rossalmhütte several times. We follow this road, from which increasingly beautiful views open up, for quite some time, more precisely to the left turn, where signs for the hut Rossalmhütte direct us right downwards on a marked footpath, by which we descend to the already mentioned hut in 2 minutes.
From the hut we return to the road, which a little higher turns slightly to the left and further ascends transversely across a panoramic slope. A little before the artificial lake intended for snowmaking on the ski area, the road turns sharply to the right and brings us past interesting "klopc" to the upper station of the circular cabin cable car, from where we ascend to Kaiserburg in 2 minutes, then continue in the direction of the summit Wöllaner Nock. From Kaiserburg the path runs almost horizontally for some time along a panoramic ridge, then begins to ascend more steeply and brings us, with views of the surrounding mountains, to the spacious summit in 15 minutes, in the middle of which stands a larger cross.
