Klippitztörl - Feldalmhütte

Access to starting point:
a) Via the Ljubelj border crossing we drive into Austria and follow the signs for Klagenfurt am Wörthersee. In Celovec at McDonald's we turn right onto the south bypass / Südring, at the next major intersection we turn right again towards Velikovec / Völkermarkt and Mostič / Brückl. We soon leave the road to Velikovec as shortly after the Obi store we turn right towards the highway and Mostič. We then pass the Ikea store, following the signs for Mostič and past the highway on-ramps. When we arrive in Mostič we follow the signs for Svinec / Eberstein and Hüttenberg. Still before Hüttenberg, more precisely after the settlement Mösel, we turn right towards the Klippitztörl pass and the settlement Lölling. We then begin to ascend noticeably through the valley of the Löllingbach stream, higher up, after the settlement Lölling, gradually moving away from the stream as well. We follow this road all the way to the Klippitztörl pass, where we turn right and park on the large asphalt parking lot.
b) Via the Jezerski Vrh, Holmec or Vič border crossings we drive into Austria, then follow the signs for Velikovec / Völkermarkt, from there the signs for Mostič / Brückl. When we arrive in Mostič we follow the signs for Svinec / Eberstein and Hüttenberg. Still before Hüttenberg, more precisely after the settlement Mösel, we turn right towards the Klippitztörl pass and the settlement Lölling. We then begin to ascend noticeably through the valley of the Löllingbach stream, higher up, after the settlement Lölling, gradually moving away from the stream as well. We follow this road all the way to the Klippitztörl pass, where we turn right and park on the large asphalt parking lot.
c) We leave the Klagenfurt am Wörthersee - Graz motorway at the Šentlenart exit in the Labotska dolina / Bad St. Leonhard im Lavanttal, then follow the signs for Zeltweg and Reichenfels. We then drive along Obdacher Straße, which after about 2 km we leave and continue left towards the Klippitztörl pass. This is followed by approximately 15 km of ascending asphalt road, which we follow past the Naturfreundehaus hut to the Klippitztörl pass, where we turn left onto the asphalt parking lot and park in a suitable spot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head north, where we first carefully cross the main road and then continue on the footpath following the signs for Zirbitzkogel and Hohenwart. Initially, we ascend transversely through the forest; when we reach a cart track, we gradually begin to descend transversely, lower down reaching a macadam road which we follow to the right, from it going a little further right onto a path that rises above the road; after a short ascent, we reach another cart track which we follow to the right. There follows some walking along the cart track, from which we several times get views of the quite distant Zirbitzkogel, then gradually arriving at the slopes of the peak Hohenwart, where at several junctions we continue straight ahead, or keep to the left marked paths, beside which are signs for Zirbitzkogel.
After a longer traverse, we reach the northern ridge of the peak Hohenwart, from where we begin to descend more noticeably, still keeping to the left directions at the junctions. Further on, we walk for some time beside a pasture, where upon looking to the right a view opens towards the Packalpe mountain group; when lower down the path stops descending, we cross a somewhat wider macadam road.
We continue following the signs for Zirbitzkogel, but after a short ascent we return to the forest, which higher up begins to thin out; a little further on, we ascend moderately along a scenic clearing. Amid beautiful views reaching to the Julian Alps we return to sparse forest, where we pass an interesting hunting observation post, then easily continue along a gentle indistinct ridge, where we almost imperceptibly step onto Angerlkogel, whose summit we recognize by the trigonometric stone.
A little further from the highest point of the summit we leave the forest and, upon looking to the left side, a view opens reaching all the way to Triglav and further to the Italian mountains; we begin descending along the grassy slope towards a smaller saddle, where we cross a macadam road, continuing the ascent along the marked path in the direction of the Feldalmhütte hut. There follows an easy ascent, first still through sparse forest, higher up along a gentle grassy slope, the path leading us slightly to the right of the Pressner Alpe ridge. A little further on, among the blueberries the path levels out completely and we arrive at the Pfannegger Kreuz cross, where the marked path turns right.
We continue the path to the right along the cart track, which gradually widens into a poorer road that mostly gently descends while crossing the slopes to the right. A little further on, the path turns left and quickly brings us to the Feldalmhütte hut.
Starting point - Angerlkogel 3:00, Angerlkogel - Feldalmhütte 0:45.
