Roseggerhaus - Geiereck

Access to starting point:
Highway A2 Graz - Vienna / Wien we leave at exit Gleichdorf-West, and then we follow the signs for the settlement Weiz. At the beginning of the settlement Weiz, we take the first exit from the roundabout in the direction of the settlement Birkfeld, and at the next crossroads, we continue following the signs for the mentioned settlement. From Birkfeld, we follow the signs for Ratten; at the end of the settlement Ratten, we turn left onto the road toward the cottage Roseggerhaus, and at the next crossroads, we continue following the signs for the mentioned cottage. After approximately 10 km from the point where we left the main road, we arrive at the parking lot in front of the cottage Roseggerhaus.

Path description:
From the cottage, we go right upwards in the direction of the summit Stuhleck and the guard tower Peter-Bergner-Warte. Immediately above the parking lot, we cross a grazing fence, and then ascend for a few minutes on grassy slopes, from which a beautiful view opens up. Higher up, we leave the grazing area and follow a gently sloping path to reach the macadam road.
Here we go right (left Amundsenhöhe) and on the road we can ascend below the peak Pretul, where on the right, only a few steps from the path, we notice the tower Peter-Bergner-Warte.
We bypass the tower on the left side, and the road then in a few minutes brings us to a marked crossing, where we continue on the right road (left downwards Moschkogelhütte).
Next follows a shorter easy ascent and we arrive at a grazing fence, which the road also crosses. Here, near the grazing fence, is the highest point of the peak Geiereck.
The starting point - Pretul 0:15, Pretul - Geiereck 0:10.
