Hiking
The Hohe Veitsch (1,981 m) is the highest point of the Veitsch massif and a magnificent summit destination in Hochsteiermark. Around the summit cross, the landscape opens up and, with good visibility, the view extends far beyond the surrounding mountains – including towards Hochschwab, Schneealpe, and Rax. Particularly beautiful is the contrast between the wooded ascents and the vast, almost high-alpine landscape on the plateau. A summit where the altitude meters are definitely worth it and where you'll gladly take a longer break.

Mountaineering
The summit cross of the Veitsch is easy to climb, technically completely unproblematic. A fantastic all-round view of the neighboring mountain world awaits you. Caution is advised in fog, orientation is very difficult!
