Trail Maintenance by the Alpine Club Mallnitz

On Sunday, May 18, 2025, Günther Schwärzler, the trail warden of the Alpine Club Mallnitz, was active on hiking trail 139 to the peak of Lonzaköpfl with Marielle of AlpineKraft, who also created the Instagram video, and Florian of Apartments Hohenberger.

Sawing, sweeping, digging channels – a small contribution to the trail infrastructure – in and around the mountaineering village Mallnitz there are more than 150 km of hiking trails for all skill levels.

The video immediately shows how much team spirit and enthusiasm is involved in trail work – and how motivating it is to have accomplished something together.

We covered about 1,000 meters in altitude up to just below the Lonzaköpfl and were busy all of Sunday. We were additionally rewarded with good weather and great views.

The high valley of Mallnitz, open to the south, is surrounded by 7 three-thousand-meter peaks and over 20 summits just under the three-thousand-meter mark. Very early on, hikers and mountaineers from Alpine Club sections of predominantly from northern Germany were drawn to the beautiful mountain world around Mallnitz – follow in their footsteps.

Apartments Hohenberger offers hikers and mountaineers a quiet, well-equipped base in the village of Mallnitz in the Hohe Tauern National Park with their studios and apartments.

National Park talent factory

In the last mountaineering autumn (2024), we were delighted to welcome Julia Altpfart, the media fellow of the national parks to the Apartments Hohenberger in Mallnitz. Through her photos, we can see the Hohe Tauern National Park from Julia’s perspective.

Her days began before sunrise and ended at night. After all, it’s about capturing those very special moments in the Hohe Tauern National Park. The 2024 trailer can be seen here:
