Königskogel circular route

High above Koglhof...

The trail starts in the district of Sallegg, high above Koglhof, and leads around the Königskogel. The tour impresses with its beautiful views.   

The trail around the Königskogel is easy to walk and offers wonderful views and a few places to rest. There is no ascent to the summit cross because the summit lies in the dense forest. Sallegg, a few kilometers above Koglhof, is located directly on the Almenland panoramic road. The views from this small village with its lush floral decorations are correspondingly beautiful. The view to the north extends to Birkfeld, the Fischbach Alps and on to the Schneealpe, the Rax or the Hohe Veitsch. Deep down in the valley lies St. George's Church, which was first mentioned in the 13th century, making it the oldest parish church in the upper Feistritz Valley. The church was rebuilt in the 18th century and later decorated in the neo-Baroque style.   

After the closure of the Obi Hansl hut, Sallegg now unfortunately lacks a restaurant, a stop-off is possible in the village of Koglhof or on the Brandlucken/Heilbrunn.
