Tscheltschnigkogel, Mountain peak in Villach, Austria

The Tscheltschnigkogel rises 696 meters above sea level on the western edge of Villach, featuring numerous underground cave formations.

Archaeological discoveries indicate settlements on Tscheltschnigkogel dating back to the Copper Age, around 4000 BC, marking early farming communities.

The mountain contains remnants of a Roman-era building from the 2nd and 3rd centuries, including an early Christian church with rectangular layout.

Multiple hiking trails connect to the summit, with the Maybachl-Tscheltschnigkogel loop extending 5.64 kilometers from Villach Warmbad.

The mountain's Eggerloch cave system stretches 709 meters underground, containing historical rock carvings that led to its closure in 2012.
