Rosenkogel via Sommertörl
Open
The access to the Sommerthörl from St. Oswald is sometimes not possible because of the winter closure!
From Sommertörl it is a short easy hike to the Rosenkogel (1644m). From spring to autumn the hike offers special charms. In June, the alpine bush blooms on the eastern slopes below the summit. In summer you can look for mushrooms and in autumn ripe blackberries and cranberries. At the end of the hike there is the possibility to stop at the Sommeralm - limited opening.
The access to the Sommerthörl from St. Oswald is partly not possible due to the winter closure!
From the parking lot Sommertörl the slightly ascending hiking trail leads via the Lorettokapelle to the Rosenkogel, 1918m, a peak on the sunny side of the NiederenTauern. The descent is via the well-marked hiking trail back to the forest road we already know and subsequently back to Sommertörl.
