Lavanttal Alps, Mountain range in central Eastern Alps, Austria

The Lavanttal Alps extend between the Mur River in the north and Drava River in the south, encompassing multiple subranges across Austria and Slovenia.

The mountain range received its designation from the Lavant Valley and initially belonged to a larger formation called the Noric Alps before geological reclassification.

The Lavanttal Alps mountains span across two Austrian states, Styria and Carinthia, forming natural borders between different linguistic and regional traditions.

Numerous marked trails lead to Mount Zirbitzkogel at 2396 meters, the highest peak in the range, offering different difficulty levels for mountain activities.

The Saualpe section forms the westernmost part of these mountains, stretching between Klippitztörl Pass and the Drava River in the Carinthian region.
