Access to the starting point:
From Dravograd, drive through the Vič border crossing to St. Andre. Follow the road to Wolfsberg, where signs for Koralpe point you to the right. Continue through St. Stefan, Maildorf and Rieding 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 subsequent junctions until it becomes 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.
