Großer Speikkogel Summit and Radar Station

Fantastic foresight over the mountains of the Lavant valley and all of Carinthia. In addition to the summit cross, there is also a radar station on the broad ridge, which is nicknamed the "gold hood".

The summit cross collapsed in January 2014 due to heavy snow and ice loads. On June 6, 2014, the cross was re-erected in its old form made of oak wood and was ceremoniously inaugurated on July 5, 2014 by Dean Engelbert Hofer and Pastor Eugen Länger ✝️ kleindenkmaeler.at/detail/gipfelkreuz_grosser_speikkogel
