Poludnig (1999 m)

At 1,999 metres, the Poludnig just scrapes the 2,000 metre mark and is a popular hiking destination due to its easy accessibility. The hike takes us through three alpine villages, past the Egger Almsee lake and the cows, horses, sheep and goats that are herded here in summer. Gailtal alpine cheese is still made on the Egger Alm and the alpine inns serve local specialities such as bacon sandwiches, Kaiser-Schmarren (pancakes) and roast pork.

Routebeschrijving

We leave the car at the car park in front of the Egger Alm and hike 10 minutes along the road to the Almdorf. From there we head south-east on path no. 483 in half an hour to the Schlosshüttensattel (1453 m), the border with Italy. Here we turn left towards the east and climb steeply uphill in a forest aisle. After about 1 hour we leave the forest behind us and enjoy a marvellous view, which increases towards the summit. After a good 2 - 2 1/2 hours in total, we have reached the summit. On a clear day you can see the Großglockner. The descent is eastwards to the Poludnigalm, 1710 metres. From the Poludnigalm via path 483 to the Dellacher Alm and from there along the road or south of the Egger Almsee lake back to the starting point. There are also possible variants on the descent - see signposts - but these are not Alpine Club trails.
