From Gorenjska side we go over the border crossing Ljubelj to Celovec / Klagenfurt or over Karawanks tunnel to Beljak / Villach. Ahead we go on the highway in the direction of signs for Gradec / Graz. We leave the highway for approximately 2km long tunnel in the direction of Bad St. Leonhard. Further, we drive past village St. Peter and a little ahead we turn left towards the village St. Anna. At the next crossroads, we follow the road in the direction of Waldheim Hütte. We park on a payable parking lot at the mountain hut.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a cart track, that starts moderately ascending on a grassy slope, which is surrounded by forest. After few minutes of walking, the meadow and the cart track turn slightly to the right. At this spot, the path for a short time a little steeper ascends, after that steepness decreases. Next follows few minutes of walking almost on flat, and then the cart track in a gentle ascent comes out of the forest on entirely unvegetated slopes. Because path mostly runs on grazing areas, we few times cross a grazing fence. The path then brings us on two successive crossings, where we continue straight in the direction of Zirbitzkogel.
The path ahead is still ascending on gentle grassy slopes and runs on a cart track. When the cart track turns right, we continue straight on a marked footpath. The path ahead is a little steeper and after approximately 15 minutes of walking again passes on a cart track which we left. Next follows some of walking on flat, and then the cart track starts ascending in zig-zags. We reach the mountain hut after 20 minutes of ascent on the upper slope of the mountain.
At the mountain hut, we go left, slightly upwards. The path which ascends past the chapel in two minutes of walking from the mountain hut brings us to the summit.
