German Tower with Viewing Platform

Highlight • Viewpoint

At the top of the Gerlizen is the "English Tower". It is a round old building at an airy height. Right next to it you will find a beautiful viewing platform from which you can overlook the Ossiacher See and all of Villach.

Steinwender Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Nice view, delicious food (tested and approved: Kaspressknödelsuppe, Schnitzel and Kaiserschmarren), very friendly and very fast service. The new tenant really has it.

Hiked to the summit today...from the middle station...but there is no summit cross on the Gerlitze.
When hiking down, then stopped at the Steinwenderhütte. The food there is fantastic 😍 and the hut owners are very friendly.
