While the western part of the Karnischer Höhenweg (from Sillian to Wolayersee Hut) leads over often demanding paths through high alpine terrain and is highly sought after by experienced mountain hikers, its eastern part (from Wolayersee Hut to Thörl Maglern) opens up the previously described wonder world of cheese alpine pastures protected by rugged battlements on mostly good-natured paths. For this part, we have combined the best of all the elements described above to form the long hiking trail of the Carnic Milky Way: So from the Carnic High Trail (KHW 403), the hikes on the constellations and all the stories about the alpine pastures, mountains and people. So to speak, the Karnische Höhenweg can be experienced in a new way! This is how the famous long-distance hiking trail becomes the Carnic Milky Way - hiking in new dimensions!
We have not made any compromises for its experience: We have reversed the walking direction for you (from east to west to the magnificently situated Wolayersee Hut as a worthy destination), because this corresponds better to the dramaturgy of the landscape, and have set up our own official Trail Information and Booking Center. This means that all the proven services of the award-winning Trail Angels team are available to you.
