Hochturm

This morning we did a tour full of beautiful spring flowers.
We started in bad weather at the parking lot at Hiaslleg. The parking lot is paid.
We went over Edelweissboden and along the flowering ridge to Hochturm. I don't know why it's called that. It could just as well be Blumenturm. The entire ridge from Edelweissboden is full of edelweiss, globe-flowers, tiny gentians and all kinds of flowers I don't all know. There are so many that from May 15 to Sept 15 they don't recommend walking off the trail.
The gentians are still tiny, but there are tons of them. After all these years in the mountains I haven't come across such a flowering paradise. How it will be in about a month when the gentians fully bloom.
The view was limited due to fog from the morning rain. Still satisfactory though.
Seems to me this is the closest two-thousander for me.

Really a true mountain paradise. Tons of flowers, lots of
"locals" (chamois!) and few of us visitors
to the flowering meadows.
When the gentians also bloom, we'll go again
- to our nearest Styrian two-thousander.
