Schareck, Mountain summit in Heiligenblut, Austria.
The Schareck peak reaches an elevation of 2,606 meters within the Goldberg Group, offering views across multiple peaks of the Hohe Tauern range.
The development of cable car infrastructure in the 1970s transformed Schareck from a remote alpine location into an accessible destination for winter sports.
The mountain station serves as a starting point for the Tauern Window Geotrail, where visitors learn about local geological formations through guided tours.
The Heiligenblut-Schareck cable car operates from June to September, providing direct access to the summit with free rides for Carinthia Card holders.
Three distinct climate zones mark the ascent to Schareck's summit, creating separate ecosystems that support different plant and animal species at each level.
