Family Hike to the Granattor
After a 30-minute drive, you'll arrive at the parking lot of the Lammersdorfer Hütte. Here, follow the path first to the Lammersdorfer Almkreuz, past the Höhenbrunn rest area, and up to the Stana-Mandl.
Continue along the garnet-paved high-altitude trail to the Obermillstätter Almkreuz, which is already at 2,046 m above sea level. Simply continue along the path and you'll have reached the "Granat Tor." This place is clearly known for its unique view of Lake Millstatt, but also for its fascinating background....
Did you know that: As the name suggests, the Garnet Gate was made of garnet stones and is intended to inform visitors that the mountain you are standing on contains the largest garnet deposit in the Alps ;)
On your way back, follow the path first across meadows and later through the forest - past the unmanned Ortner Hut and back to the starting point, the Lammersdorfer Hut. Can you hear that? Your little explorer's stomach is making itself heard. It's a good thing that you are well-stocked at the hut. Here you can find fresh dairy products from the on-site dairy, and the "Hüttenpfandl" (bacon with egg and bread) is particularly delicious.
