Hämmerkogel

In the Seckauer Tauern, the last snowfields are melting day by day. Right now it is particularly beautiful in the alpine terrain, although the trail conditions can be strenuous at times. Although the paths are mostly dry, there are snow-covered or wet spots that are very slippery. The powerful murmur of the streams and the calm mirror-smooth surface of the lakes exude a special charm. Early summer is slowly beginning in the mountains and with it the alpine bush blossoms. On this long-distance hike we take our time, enjoy the pleasant hiking temperatures, occasionally observe marmots and chamois and see the first alpine flowers. The hiking trail leads over a softly shaped cirque landscape to the Hämmerkogel, which is rich in views. For athletically ambitious mountaineers, the "encore" would be the Seckauer Zinken (2397 m), which can be hiked over a connecting ridge. Conclusion: A powerful mountain tour in the Murtal region.
