Hüttschlag: Murtörl - Nebelkarscharte - Klingspitz

This hike starts at the parking lot at the Hüttschlag valley end. At the Gasthof Talwirt you can find local delicacies and buy self-smoked bacon.

Past the Stockham farm towards the Kreealmen. Right at the beginning of the path to the Kreealmen a short detour to the Kreealm waterfall is definitely worthwhile, which plunges about 100 m down a rock face into the valley.

During the ascent, you can choose whether you prefer the forest road or shortcuts through the forest. Shortly before the alpine huts, you will come to a small chapel. This is a place to pause and encourages every hiker to say thank you briefly.

Two alpine huts await you on the Kreealm, the Kreealm-Kreehütte is the lower one, the upper one is the Kreealm-Bichlhütte. At both huts, you will be spoiled with delicacies from their own production (cheese, butter, bread, bacon, or sausage). After a short rest, continue uphill through a huge cirque to the Murtörl. Just below this pass, the Mur river springs. It is often very windy here; it may happen that you hike in short sleeves everywhere and that icy cold wind blows at Murtörl.

Follow the high path further to the Nebelkarscharte and the Wasserfallscharte. When ascending the summit of Klingspitz, surefootedness and a head for heights are required – in return, you will be rewarded with a magnificent panoramic view of the surrounding mountains. Along the high path, it goes back into the Tappenkar with the Tappenkarsee, the largest mountain lake in the Eastern Alps. According to legend, the Tappenkarsee is connected to the Schuhflickersee because a wagon wheel that fell into the Tappenkarsee was found in the Schuhflickersee...

Via alpine meadows, it goes to the Karteistörl and from there downhill to the Karteisalm, which unfortunately is not operated. Especially in early summer, the area around Karteistörl offers a magnificent floral display. Via a beautiful hiking path, you reach the Hallmoosalm (not operated). From here there is the option to take the hiking taxi downhill. Alternatively, you can walk the hiking path to Hüttschlag/Karteis and take the postbus back to the car at the valley end. For the athletically inclined, there is also the option to walk from the Karteis district into the valley end on foot.
