Description

The Venediger High Trail (Höhenweg) is usually walked in 5, 6 or 7 days through the Venediger Group in Austria’s Hohe Tauern National Park. This classic hut to hut hike partially wraps around Grossvenediger, Austria’s second-largest mountain, delivering views of mammoth mountains, melting glaciers, and countless waterfalls.

Some websites explains variations one could make on the Venediger High Trail (for instance if you want to traverse a given summit on the way.)

This FKT-route marks the original Südabschnitt. The startpoint for the Südabschnitt is Hinterbichl (Parkplatz Stroden) and ends in the Matreier Tauernhaus, and is therefore running from A to B (in one go).
