Video: OE5JFE activates 2 summits in the Gesäuse Nationalpark

Activation Reports
1

Hello everyone,

This time I am taking you to the Austrian Nationalpark Gesäuse and its highest summit Hochtor OE/ST-031.
Day 1 starts with the ascent to Hochzinödl OE/ST-066 activation and an overnight stay at Hesshütte mountain hut.

The climb on day 2 follows a clever arrangement of zig-zag path sections and steel-cable secured climbing sections to the ridgeline and further on to the summit at 2369m.

Hello Marat,

A pleasure to share with the SOTA community. That reminds me how lucky I am living in a diverse area with easy walks and big hikes in the alps nearby.

Hi Toru-san,

Thank you for your feedback. I hope you are doing fine.
When we are beyond Cov-19 maybe you want to visit OE for some activations? :+1:

Take care and all the best.
