Mussen, Nature reserve and mountain in Kötschach-Mauthen, Austria
The Mussen reserve extends from 710 to 2,780 meters in elevation, featuring diverse mountain landscapes across the Gailtal and Carnic Alps regions.
The Via Iulia Augusta, passing near Mussen, functioned as a vital trade route connecting the region with the southern territories of the Roman Empire.
The mountain pastures of Mussen contribute to the production of certified Gailtaler Almkäse cheese, following traditional Alpine dairy methods.
Visitors can access multiple hiking trails through the nature reserve, with designated paths leading to observation points of regional flora.
The reserve maintains energy independence through its hydroelectric power station, established in 1886, supporting local environmental conservation efforts.
