ST_N9 Madritschen (1,918 m)

From the parking lot near the beginner area (button lifts), the route leads you along the Lago del Pramollo (lake on the Italian side) to the edge of the forest.

Now you walk a few meters along the cross-country ski trail (taking into account cross-country skiers and winter hikers), then continue via the steadily ascending summer hiking trail (also bike trail "Livio") leading you through the forest to reach the high plateau near the Madritschen peak.

From here the route continues over open areas, almost parallel to the border, to the summit cross of Madritsche.

Descent:

The stated time only includes the ascent time, not the descent (the descent takes place – depending on snow conditions, weather, and skill – via the piste or through open terrain near the ascent route).

Care for nature – landowners – your health.... and safety in the mountains have the highest priority during your route and the associated planning!

Therefore, inform yourself before every ski route about the rules of conduct - Mountain Safety, the current snow and avalanche reports Carinthian Avalanche Warning Service and the weather situation.

Waste disposal:

Waste is not always avoidable - but in nature it has no place and must be disposed of properly (preferably in the valley or at home).

Emergency numbers:

European emergency number: 112 (access to any available network)

Mountain rescue Austria: 140

The most sustainable access option is by train (coming from Villach) to Hermagor. From Hermagor, you can then reach the town of Tröpolach by shuttle from the station as well as by bus / ski bus.

Alternatively, it is also possible to travel by bus from the direction of Kötschach-Mauthen or Villach to Hermagor or Tröpolach.

From Tröpolach, you then take the Millennium Express up before reaching the ski tour start point at the Nassfeld Pass state border via the piste descent.
