On Sunday we climbed to Zirbitzkogel, the highest peak of the Labotniške Alpe. We did a circular route: Waldheimhütte - Wildsee - Fuchskogel 2214m - Zirbitzkogel 2396m - Scharfes Eck 2364m - Lavantsee - Waldheimhütte. Zirbitzkogel is easily accessible even in winter, the hut is open on nice weekends.

Yesterday I walked the route St. Anna am Lavantegg - Waldheimhütte - Rothaidenhütte - Zirbitzkogel - Lavantsee - Köhlerhütte - Waldheimhütte - St. Anna am Lavantegg.
The path is normally passable, no snow on the path.
Parking fee at Waldheimhütte hut (1614 m), or toll to there is 3 euros, in St. Anna am Lavantegg settlement (1291 m) parking is free.

Best, Tadej

I have already visited it this year. The hike to Zirbitzkogel is suitable in every season. The hut is open on weekends even in winter, and the path is groomed with a snowcat.

This time from Klippitztörl pass to Fuchskogel, which is the neighboring peak of Zirbitzkogel.
The walked path is normally passable, but very long.
Parking at Klippitztörl pass (1644 m) is free.

Best, Tadej

Somewhere to snow and sun, that was our motto on Friday. This peak is close, easily accessible, and they even groom the trail. From Waldheimhütte (parking, 3 euros) about 3 hours scenic hike. View gets wider with height. On the top everything is in the palm of the hand. From our Alps to half Austria.
On top hut open on nice weekends. For ski touring still little snow, as windblown. Those with skis skied on forest road where more snow packed, hutkeeper grooms it with small snowcat on each arrival to hut. We used snowshoes this time. Better choice.
Parking lot empty at 8:00.1

Drago, that decorated man is wooden. Unbelievable, how they manage to preserve it, I was up there more than thirty years ago and remember it strongly.
