Königinnenstuhl in the Styrian Nockberge

Highlight • Summit

A nice "king's straw" with a view of two valleys. A deserted valley and the valley to Winkl. A nice place for a short rest.

A beautiful three-peak circular tour in the Nockberge Mountains, starting from the highest point of the Nockalm Road, which opened today. Few snowfields above 2000 meters, with summer temperatures and good visibility. On top of that, the first marmot sightings 🦫 of the year.
