From the Johannsenruhe car park in the Bärental valley, take a forest road to the Klagenfurter Hütte, where you can enjoy a magnificent panorama in the midst of the Karawanken mountains. If you haven't had enough yet, you can continue hiking to the 2,024 m high Geißberg (Kosiak). Here you have a view over the entire southern Carinthian region. The path up the Geißberg is steep but technically not difficult. The walking time Klagenfurter Hütte - Geißberg - Klagenfurter Hütte is about 2 hours and you cover 360 metres in altitude.
