Access to starting point:
From Spittal we drive towards Salzburg or vice versa, but only to the settlement Kremsbrücke (from Spittal exit Gmünd, and from Salzburg the exit St. Peter). In the settlement Kremsbrücke, we notice signs for the alpine road Nockalmstrße, which we then on numerous hairpin turns follow to the mountain pass on 2024 meters.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a footpath in the direction of peaks Klomnock and Mallnock and lake Falkertsee. The path already at the very beginning crosses a grazing fence, behind which it starts ascending diagonally on the left side of the mountain. A relatively steep path then leads us on relatively steep slopes, on which we have fixed safety gear for help, which aren't necessary. After the first steep part path passes on moderately steep grassy slopes, on which we are then ascending in a moderate diagonal ascent. A little further, the path again becomes steeper and with the help of steel cables brings us to a crossing a little below the summit. Here we continue right and on a gentle upper slope of the mountain in few minutes we reach the peak.
