September 14, 2025, Schoberriegel Summit

The Schoberriegel is a 2,208 m (7,208 ft) high mountain located on the border of the municipalities of Reichenau and Albeck on the Turracher Höhe in the Gurktal Alps. The western and eastern flanks are steep and rocky. A gently sloping ridge leads to the summit from the north. To the south, the ridge leads to the summit of the Gruft. It is a popular hiking mountain due to its beautiful views of the Nockberge Mountains and the Turracher Höhe. A summit cross with a summit register is located at the summit.

The smallest of the three lakes owes its color to algae growing on its bottom. As the only lake on the Turracher Höhe, Lake Grünsee drains south into the Gurk River. Lake depth: up to 12 meters

Accessible in December with snowshoes, cross-country skis or winter hiking. Without snow, by bike or on foot. Can be visited as part of the 3-Seen circuit, many benches invite you to rest!

The Red Castle is “just” a rock formation that stands out because of its surface and, above all, its color. A great destination.
