Access to the starting point:
From Dravograd, drive through the Vič border crossing to St. Andre. Follow the road to Wolfsberg, where signs for St. Michael point you to the left. From St. Michael, follow the road towards Lading. The ascending road leads you higher up to a less marked crossroads where you continue left. A relatively steep road then leads through the village of Lading to a large parking lot located slightly above the village.

Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the road on the right in the direction of Ladinger Hütte. The winding road you are walking on quickly leads you to the next junction, where you continue to the right again. The road then starts to climb moderately and after an hour and a half of walking leads us out of the forest. After a few minutes of scenic walking, the path leads to the Ladinger Hütte.
From the hut, follow the cart track towards Ladinger Spitze. "Leave the Cart track, which ascends moderately and crosses a few small springs, at a point where signs point slightly to the right onto a footpath which begins to climb steeply up a grassy slope.
