Access to the starting point:
a) Via Border crossing Ljubelj, drive into Austria, then follow the road to Klagenfurt / Klagenfurt. In Klagenfurt, go straight on at all junctions, but when the main road turns sharp right, leave it just a little further and continue left towards Dhovše near Klagenfurt / Lendorf and Trg am Carinth / Feldkirchen in Kärnten. When you reach the motorway junction, turn left towards Trg na Koroškem and when you reach the point, follow the signs for the Turracher Höhe Alpine pass. After about 90 km from Border crossing Ljubelj, you will reach the pass, from which you will descend to parking lot No. 1, where you will park.

b) Drive through the Karavanke tunnel into Austria, then follow the motorway to the motorway junction, from where you continue to Spittal an der Drau and continue on the A10 motorway. Leave the A10 quickly and take the exit for Ossiacher See, take the third exit at the nearby roundabout (if there was no roundabout, you would go left) and continue along Millstätter Strasse. Follow this road to Radenthein, where you turn right towards Bad Kleinkirchheim. Continue through the above-mentioned town for a few kilometres and turn left at Patergassen towards the Alpine pass and the Turracher Höhe ski resort. Once you reach the pass, there is a short descent to parking lot 1, where you park. From Border crossing Karawanks to the starting point is approximately 78 km.
Path description:
From the parking lot, first cross the main road carefully, then walk to the Hotel Hochschober, after which continue along the dirt road towards Lake Schwarzsee, Peak Eisenhut and other peaks. At first, the path offers a beautiful view of Lake Turrachsee, but then you gradually move away from the lake. Soon we reach the tourist village of Meizeit Hüttendorf, where we get the last view of Lake Turrachsee and where the trail splits.

The path turns right towards Grünsee, and we continue straight on towards the Eisenhut and Schoberrigel peaks and the Schwarzsee lake, turning slightly left at the next crossroads towards the Eisenhut peak (slightly right towards Schoberrigel and Eisenhut over the aforementioned peak).

A short climb up a dirt road leads to a former hotel located at the south-western end of Lake Schwarzsee, and we descend gently to the northern shore of the lake.

From the lake we continue along the marked road, which we continue to follow towards the top of Eisenhut. The road, which mostly leads us alongside fine views, only occasionally through a short lane of forest, descends gently for the most part, and after crossing a slightly larger stream, the road turns northwards, where we reach the lower part of the mountain pasture of Gesgeralm. Just 10 paces further on, after crossing a pasture fence, leave the road and continue right, crossing over a steeper slope. After a short climb, a small hut is quickly reached, and we follow a slightly muddy and overgrown path up to the top of mountain pasture, where another hut stands on the right.
Just before the cottage, from the crossroads, continue along a slightly left-hand road which begins to climb cross-country. After a few minutes' walk on the worse road, leave it and continue to the right in the direction of the waymarked path. The marked trail leads past a spring with an older trough, and then at a marked crossroads at Engeleriegel, where there is also a registration box with a registration book and a stamp, you cross the road you have recently left.
Continue straight on to the top of Eisenhut (Gruft and Schoberriegel to the right) and climb for a short distance before the path crosses over to the other side of the ridge where it flattens out and we cross a wire fence at the marked part. There follows an easy traverse down a slightly harder to follow path. When we reach the nearby forest, the track becomes more distinct and the descent continues. Lower down, the forest thins out and the path crosses a few streams, but in a few places the path disappears again, and we follow the markings carefully. In a moderate descent, then in a few minutes we reach two huts on mountain pasture Gillendorferalm.
