ヴァイセンシュタインの絶景の山頂・トップ20

At the summit of Mount Dobratsch are two churches, both dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. The Windische Kirche (Slovenian Church) was built in 1690 by a noblewoman following an apparition of the Virgin Mary, but due to disagreements with the landowners, it was built a little lower down from the site of the apparition. But the faithful did not give up, and in 1692 a second church, the German Chapel, was consecrated on the exact same site.

Located below the summit cross and not immediately visible from afar ... very impressive and inside there are candles that you can light for a small donation to the upkeep of the church

We take the toll road (5€) from Afritz to the Wieseralm. From there we start this beautiful circular hike to the world mountain Mirnock. We briefly follow a road to the west towards the Hochalmhütte. At a fork in the road we decide on the shorter option and turn left. It goes comfortably up through the forest. Later the forest thins out and we enter wide pastures. After a good hour and a half we reach the summit cross of the Mirnock. We enjoy the deep view of Lake Millstatt. For the descent we follow the gentle ridge of the Mirnock towards Rindernock. At the small lake at its foot, wooden loungers tempt us to take another rest. Here we turn left and descend to the Wieser Alm.

Attention: An incorrect address is stored when navigating. If you want to go from the Wieser Alm to the Mirnock, Rindernock, etc., please search for "Lierzbergerstraße". The entrance is at the southern end of the Afritzer See (Camping Glinzner, Bodner, old people's and nursing home, Afritzer lido,...) From the address Wiesenweg 24, 9544 Feld am See you can only get to the Mirnock on foot, a total of around 1300 meters in altitude! From the Wieser Alm it is around 600 meters in altitude.

The route to the summit of the Dobratsch, starting point at the Rosstratte car park, can be done in several ways. The easiest, however, is to follow the "normal" route. This should also be possible for inexperienced and not particularly well-equipped people. Good footwear is a must, however, as the path is partly made of coarse gravel and can be slippery, especially when going downhill. It is around 4.5 km with an elevation difference of around 450 m. The effort is definitely worth it, the view from the summit cross is fantastic.
