ギッチュタールの峠・トップ17

The small reservoir at the Nassfeld pass is beautiful, but unfortunately overrun by camper vans and motorcyclists on weekends.

The descent towards Tröpolach was tackled in pouring rain, which is why the impressions may be somewhat influenced. The asphalt is very nice, with a few bends in the upper section with good asphalt and a view towards the valley. However, as you speed up towards Tröpolach, you mainly ride through wooded areas, so you don't get much of a view. Instead, you whiz down long straights with easily visible waves, interrupted by a few bends in the lower section, in downhill style. The asphalt varies between good and brittle. There is also more traffic on the north side, as the upper Nassfeld seems to be a popular destination for day trippers.

As a pass, the Kreuzberg is rather unspectacular. There is no view here, and there is not much to linger on. It is more of a transit pass that connects the two valleys. Coming from Hermagor, it is a very long climb that becomes tough at the end. Coming from Greifenburg, it is very tough, especially after Pobersach/Waisach, it is just miserably steep with over 15% towards the turnoff to the very beautiful Weissensee. This means that there is a lot of traffic, especially on the northern slope - both downhill and uphill. Sports cars are also often tested here, so there can be some tricky situations here too. Better than driving early in the morning or later in the day when the excursion traffic has passed. Otherwise, it is mostly good asphalt!

Very nice, steady climb to the Weißensee!👍

A small man-made lake right next to the border with a road and hiking trail around it. A beautiful place for taking photos, sitting and relaxing, and in winter for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.

A very nice view of the mountain.

Nice view of the Gartnerkofel 🤩

The Nassfeld (Slovene Mokrine, Italian Passo di Pramollo) in the Carnic Alps is a saddle between the Austrian Gail Valley and the Italian Canal Valley. The pass is at 1530 m above sea level. A.[1], surrounding mountains are the Gartnerkofel (2195 m), the Rosskofel (2239 m) and the Trogkofel (2280 m). The Gartnerkofel is known for the occurrence of the Kuhtritt, a rare and endemic mountain flower.
