Hahnlkamp
Hahnlkamp is a 2,634-metre peak in the Schobergruppe range on the border between East Tirol and Kärnten. It stands above the Moosbach valley to the west and the Gössnitztal valley to the east. The mountain lies on a ridge that runs northeast from the Bösen Weibl (3,119 m) towards Kals and Heiligenblut. Nearby summits include the Saukopf (2,749 m) to the southeast and the Kracker (2,461 m) to the northeast, separated by the Gössnitzfeldscharte (2,463 m).
The normal route to Hahnlkamp follows the Kirchtagscharte, a pass between the Saukopf and the Zinggetzkamp. Walkers usually reach the pass from the Wirtsbauernalm in the Gössnitztal, climbing through grassy slopes and scree before reaching the col. From the west, the route can also start in the Leiterbachtal or Moosbachtal, or from the south via the Peischlachtörl. The final climb involves a grassy ridge to the Saukopf summit, followed by an easy ridge walk to Hahnlkamp.
From the Gössnitzfeldscharte, the peak can be reached by another straightforward ridge walk. The summit offers wide views across the Schobergruppe and the surrounding valleys. The route passes alpine pastures such as the Plankasern-Alm, where cattle graze in summer. The contrast between the green high pastures and the rocky ridges adds to the appeal of the climb.
