More sun and less wind would have been nice. Still, a super relaxed ride.💚

May 30, 2025, #703 Zirbitzkogel (Winterleitenhütte, Schreibersteig, Zirbitzkogel^, Geierkogel^, Linderhütte, Lindertalweg)

From the Winterleiten Hut, we follow the Schreibersteig trail uphill past the Scharfes Eck to the Zirbitzkogel. Once again, we are denied a view from this summit, and the first small gaps in the clouds only appear on the descent. With a short detour to the Geierkogel, we still manage to snag a nice vantage point over the Lavantsee. Via the Linder Hut, we then descend to the Almrausch Hut and climb back up through a magnificent pine forest to the starting point and a four-course GourmetAlps menu.
