Polster, Mountain and monumental cross in Vordernberg, Austria.

Polster rises to an elevation of 1910 meters within the Politischer Bezirk Leoben region, featuring hiking trails through varied alpine terrain.

The mountain forms part of the Präbichl-Vordernberg ski resort, where local traditions of winter sports and alpine recreation continue throughout seasons.

Hikers can access multiple shelter points along the 9.51-kilometer trail, including Leobner Hütte at 1582 meters and Polster Schutzhaus at 1792 meters.

The chairlift system operates at 2.50 meters per second, transporting 720 people per hour across a 560-meter vertical distance between stations.
