The Zirbitzkogel watches over the Murtal almost like a sovereign. Spectacular impressions from the summit of the king of the Zirbenland lure you to the next mountain hike. The ascent leads through closed spruce forests, which are then replaced by larch and stone pine. Hike past crystal-clear lakes and roam through a piece of untouched nature where, with luck, you may also see marmots or chamois. Early risers climb the peak in the dark and are then rewarded with an absolutely spectacular sunrise. Enjoy a steaming cup of coffee while the sun turns the valley below you dark red.
The Zirbitzkogel is not named after the Swiss stone pine, but after the Croatian čьrvenica, which means "red area". At the end of June to the beginning of July, the flowering alpine bush gives the area around the mountain the most beautiful shades of red and pink. This beautiful landscape attracts many hiking enthusiasts every year. On the Zirbitz you can also find the well-known gentian and the effective St. John's wort. The Zirbitz in the Zirbenland invites you to wonderful hikes every year.
