Bad Kleinkirchheim - Wöllaner Nock

Access to starting point:
A) Through the Karawanks Tunnel, we drive to Austria, and then we continue driving on Tauern highway, which we leave already at Villach bypass highway and we continue driving towards 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 Štajerska or Koroška, we at first drive to Dravograd and then over the border crossing Vič into Austria, where we then follow the signs for Celovec / Klagenfurt. Further, we drive on the so-called South highway, which we leave at Klagenfurt (direction Feldkirchen). Further, we drive on a regional road, on which we get to the already mentioned settlement. In Feldkirchen, we continue right in the direction of the mountain pass Turacher Höhe and we drive ahead past 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 east edge of the parking lot, we will notice an asphalt footpath which after 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 are ascending on the asphalt road which leads us among houses, and then we get to a marked crossing, where we continue left over a small bridge, which crosses the stream Ottingerbach (right leads the road to Waldtratte and further to the upper station of the cable car).
On the other side of the stream, the path turns right and then it is ascending by the edge of the forest. For some time we are ascending on a quite overgrown footpath which higher crosses a cart track, after which it passes into a dense forest. Higher, the footpath widens, and after further few minutes of the ascent brings us on a wide cart track which we follow to the right. The path ahead crosses a larger clearing, and then a wider cart track leads over a small bridge, after which we get to a marked crossing.
After the small bridge, we continue left into a dense forest (right on the road Waldtratte 20 minutes), and then the path turns right and after a shorter steep ascent brings us by the edge of the ski track. We short time continue by the ski slope, and then the path leads on a cart track, on which in few minutes we ascend to the spot, where the marked path crosses the other wider cart track. We continue straight upwards on a moderately steep mountain path, and higher it brings us to a smaller mountain pasture, where there are some wooden cottages.
On the mountain pasture, we step on a macadam road, on which in few minutes we ascend to the next marked crossing, which is situated by the bottom station of two cableways.
Here we continue right in the direction of the peak Wöllaner Nock, on the path which quickly brings us to the cottage at the bottom station of the "right" cableway. Here, the footpath vanishes, and we just continue below the ski lift, where we quickly notice blazes and occasionally a poorly beaten footpath. Higher, the footpath becomes better visible and then turns to the right, where it again starts vanishing. Ahead we cross a ski track, and the path a little higher brings us to a forest road, on which we walk to the sharp left turn, where right downwards a marked footpath branches off towards the mountain hut Rossalmhütte.
Here we continue left (right Rossalmhütte 2 minutes) and we walk on the road for approximately 50 meters and then blazes point us slightly to the right on a marked footpath which starts ascending steeper by a grassy ridge. And on the mentioned footpath, from which increasingly beautiful views opening up, in few minutes we ascend to the upper station of the cable car.
From here we in 2 minutes ascend on Kaiserburg, and then we continue in the direction of the summit Wöllaner Nock. From Kaiserburg, the path for some time runs almost horizontal on a panoramic ridge and then it starts ascending steeper and with views on surrounding mountains in 15 minutes brings us on an ample peak, on which stands a bigger cross.
