!!!Schobergruppe

Schober Mountains, glaciated Alpine massif of the Central Alps, 
located between the Iseltal and Moelltal valleys, with Petzeck 
(3,283 m), Roter Knopf (3,281 m) and Hochschober 
(3,242 m) mountains. Its main crest forms the border between 
Carinthia and East Tirol; its Carinthian section is part of the  Hohe 
Tauern National Park. The Schober mountains, surrounding the Debanttal 
valley in a horseshoe shape, comprise about 100 small and larger 
cirque lakes, e.g. in Tirol: Barrensee, Alkuser See and 
Neualpseen, in Carinthia: Wangenitzsee, Kreuzsee and Gradensee. The 
Peischlachtoerl mountain (2,484 m) connects the Schober mountains 
with the Glocknergruppe mountains; consists mainly of mica schist. 
Zettersfeldbahn (monocable ropeway) from Lienz (alt. 725 m) up to 
the Zettersfeld mountain (1,812 m); skiing region. Mountain 
refuges: Wangenitzseehuette (alt. 2,508 m), Hochschoberhuette 
(alt. 2,322 m), Lienzer Huette (alt. 1,974 m).
