Waldrast - Großhöllerhütte (Koralpe)

Access to the starting point:
a) Take one of the border crossings with Austria (Korensko sedlo, Karawanks tunnel, Ljubelj Pass, Jezerski vrh Pass, Pavličev vrh Pass) into Austria and then continue along the so-called southern motorway towards Graz/Graz. Follow the motorway to Wolfsberg, where you leave the motorway, and then, when you reach the roundabout with the old or regional road, continue driving "straight ahead" in the direction of the Koralpe ski resort. We continue through St. Stefan, Maildorf and Rieding, and follow the ascending road to the large parking lot at the Koralpe ski centre.
b) Cross the Holmec or Vič border crossing into Austria and continue driving towards Wolfsberg, where signs for Koralpe point you to the right. Continue through St. Stefan, Maildorf and Rieding, and follow the ascending road to the large parking lot at the Koralpe ski centre.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, you will see the mountain signs for Wasserfall and Großhöllerhütte, which direct you to the left to the road, which is closed with a barrier. The road then immediately turns right and, after about half an hour's walk, with some slight ups and downs, leads to a crossroads where you continue in the direction of Großhöllerhütte. Follow the road in the same direction at the following junctions until it turns into a footpath. At the point where the road ends is the next crossroads, where you have two options for continuing. Take the right-hand path, which takes you up along the stream. Cross the stream a little higher up and step onto the island, which you then walk along for a few minutes. The path continues over a small bridge to the right side of the stream (left bank) and starts to climb steeply. When the steepness subsides, you reach the next fork in the path, where you continue to the left (Koralpenhaus on the right). After a few more steps, you cross the stream again via a small bridge. Here a path branches off to the left down to a waterfall which is only a two-minute walk away.
From the waterfall, continue along the path, which begins to climb steeply up the increasingly scenic slope. After 20 minutes of ascent from the waterfall, the path leads to a mountain hut.

On the way: The Poms waterfall (Koralpe) (1671m)
