Untere Wolayeralm - Obere Wolayeralm

Access to starting point:
Over the border crossing Korensko sedlo we descend into Austria, and there at the first larger intersection we continue left in the direction of the village Podklošter/Arnoldstein. In the mentioned village we will arrive at a roundabout, where we continue right in the direction of "Hermagor". Further, we drive on a wide road which leads us through the Gailtal valley. At the settlement Mauthen we continue left in the direction of the mountain pass Plöckenpass, and after a few 100 m right in the direction of the Lesachtal valley. Further, we drive on a narrower and quite winding road, which we follow to the spot where a road branches off to the left towards the village Wodmaier. The road soon above the village loses the asphalt surface, and in the next intersections we follow it in the direction of the lake Wolayer See. We then follow this very bad and occasionally quite steep road to the parking lot on the mountain pasture Untere Wolayeralm.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the forest road closed to traffic, which soon starts to ascend more steeply. The considerably panoramic and serpentine road then brings us higher to the nice waterfall Hildenfall.
After the waterfall the road passes into a strip of sparse forest and flattens somewhat higher up, crosses a pasture fence and after a few minutes of further walking brings us to the mountain pasture Obere Wolayeralm, on which stands a somewhat larger shepherd's hut (to here we need 1.5 hours).
