Bleckwand

Bleckwand, Mountain summit in Strobl, Austria.

Bleckwand is a mountain summit near Strobl with an elevation of roughly 1,500 meters. From the top, several hiking paths descend through forested slopes and across more open terrain toward the valley floor.

The summit cross on the Bleckwand was erected by local residents in 1947 in gratitude for their return from Soviet prisoner-of-war captivity after the Second World War. The cross stands on the summit ridge, while the actual highest point lies among the trees a little to the southeast. The mountain rises to 1,541 m south of the Wolfgangsee in the Salzkammergut mountains.

The Naturfreundehaus Bleckwandhütte, at 1,340 m west of the summit, is a mountain hut run by the Naturfreunde; the Illighütte and Welzlerhütte lie further south. The summit cross was set up by locals in 1947 in thanks for their return from Soviet captivity.

A common route starts at the Welzlerhütte: trail no. 32 reaches the Bleckwandhütte in about 45 minutes, then trail no. 875 continues another 45 minutes to the summit. The descent via trail no. 31 returns to the Welzlerhütte in about 45 minutes. The Bleckwandhütte, a Naturfreundehaus, stands at 1,340 m west of the summit.

The summit cross was erected by locals in 1947 in gratitude for their return from Soviet captivity in World War II. The actual highest point lies among the trees a little southeast of the cross, so the cross is not the true summit.
