Schwaiger Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The view is amazing, the food is delicious and home-made. This is how you imagine a hut in the mountains of Austria! The hut is open from May (depending on …

Millstätter Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The landlady Edith and her team serve Carinthian home cooking and other delicacies – the view is simply magnificent! Also great for children, there is a small playground (water, sand, kitchen) and some animals to observe (goats, pigs, donkeys).

Tschierwegernock

Highlight • Summit

A perfect box seat: the Tschierwegernock rises from the mountain range north of Lake Millstatt towards the water. It is connected to the high palf nock via a back.

Wonderful view of the lake and the Alexanderhütte below. In summer the meadows are transformed into a veritable sea of flowers.

August 29, 2022, Schwaigerhütte - Hochpalfennock

Every year again. The three-hut hike Schwaigerhütte, Millstätter Hütte and Alexanderhütte has been an integral part of our holiday program at Lake Millstätte for years. By car, take the toll road (€8) to the parking lot at the Schwaigerhütte, where the hike begins. With variations. First the Alexanderhütte or first the Millstätter Hütte. And in one of the two is stopped. And depending on your mood, you can make a detour to Kamplnock or Hochpalfennock and Tschierwegernock. This year it was the turn of the latter two. Incidentally, without the detours, the tour is a stroller-friendly family hike. And it is used by many as such.

Leisurely hiking tour in the best weather with a final rest at the Schwaiger Hütte. 👋🏻👋🏻

The tour is about 500 meters short because Komot started later.

Today we descend in the best weather from the Millstätter Hut via Hochpalfennock and Tschierwegernock to the Schwaigeralm. Great distant views when there are degrees of frost above the cloud cover.

An easy hike to get you started. Visit the Schwaigerhütte, Millstätter Hütte, Hochpalfennock, Tschierweger Nock, and Alexanderhütte. We only stopped at the last one.

Today a sporty tour, at least for us flatland Tyroleans 😂 We started at the Schwaigerhütte car park, initially a little uphill on a farm track, but everything was doable. And already with great views of Lake Millstatt, from the Alexanderhütte. From the fork to the Tsçhierwegernock 2010 m. it was a strenuous, steep climb. 😜 But we were rewarded with an amazing view of the lake and the valley. 😍 After this first summit, we continued uphill to the Hoçhpalfennock, but not as steep. 👍 There, too, we were greeted by a magnificent view. From there we went downhill over scree and stones. The next highlight was the Millstätter Hütte, where they serve a very tasty Kaiserschmarrn.😋😋😋 And then we relaxed along the farm track back to the car park. We really enjoyed the tour. 👍👍👍
