Mrzla gora, Mountain in the Kamnik Alps, Carinthia and Solčava, Austria and Slovenia

Mrzla gora is a 2,203-meter summit in the Kamnik Alps, rising above the Logar Valley, the Matk Cirque and the Vellach Combe. The Austrian border runs along its northern and western ridges. No easy route reaches the top: the approach from the Matk Cirque is long and exposed, while the Okrešelj path is technically demanding over crumbly rock.

The first recorded attempt on Mrzla gora came in 1876, when Robert von Lendenfeld and the guide Matijevec from Luče climbed the western fore-summit by the west ridge and turned back, believing they had reached the top. In 1877 Karl Blodig tried twice and gave up below the summit in bad weather; that same year Johannes Frischauf, Piskernik and Matek reached the top from Matkov kot. The state border runs along the western and northern ridges, and access was forbidden until 1967 for political reasons.

The mountain's Slovene name, Mrzla gora, means "cold mountain". Its three approach valleys carry separate names: the Logar Valley, Matk Cirque (Matkov kot) and Vellach Combe (Belska kočna). The Frischauf Lodge on Okrešelj, a starting point for the summit route, is named after Johannes Frischauf, who reached the top in 1877.

Multiple marked trails from both countries lead to the summit, with spring and summer providing the most stable weather and best path conditions. These seasons make for safer climbing with clearer routes and more predictable weather patterns.

The first ascent attempt came in 1876, when Robert von Lendenfeld and the guide Matijevec from Luče climbed the western forepeak and turned back, believing they had reached the top. The reason for the mistake is still unexplained. The true summit was reached in 1877 by Johannes Frischauf, Piskernik and Matek, from the Matk Cirque.
