    Tips

    July 25, 2019

    You are standing at an altitude of 1,963 meters on the Hoher Nock, a karstified plateau mountain in southeastern Upper Austria. It clearly towers over the Windischgarstner Basin to the south and is the highest elevation in the entire Upper Austrian Alpine foothills. The mountain lies in the central area of the Kalkalpen National Park, founded in 1997.

        The Hohe Nock (1,963 m) is the highest peak in the Sengsengebirge Mountains and – when traversed from east to west – the last major summit of the tour before descending through the Budergraben valley. It offers magnificent panoramic views of the Kalkalpen National Park, the Totes Gebirge mountains, and the Gesäuse.
        On clear days, however, the Hohe Nock is a popular destination, and it can get quite crowded – those seeking absolute peace and solitude should ascend in the early morning hours and during the week.
