The Bosruck is at 1992  m above sea level. A. Height of the westernmost mountain in the Ennstal Alps on the border between Upper Austria and Styria . It is separated from the main ridge of the Haller walls by the Pyhrgasgatterl and forms its own, ridge-like mountain stock made of limestone.

In front of the Bosruck on the ridge to the west are the peaks Lahnerkogel and Kitzstein , to the east is the Frauenmauer .

ways

There are three official routes leading to the Bosruck, some of which are rope insured.

  • From the Pyhrnpass over the Fuchsalm to the Lahnerkogel. From the Lahnerkogel you move on the ridge and reach the summit of the Bosruck via the Kitzstein. Surefootedness and a head for heights are required to climb the ridge .
  • From the Ardningalm over the Kitzstein to the summit.
  • From the Arlingsattel over the Wildfrauenhöhle to the Bosruck. This variant is a via ferrata (Wildfrauensteih) with difficulty A / B.

tunnel

In the past, the mountain had to be bypassed via the 954 m high Pyhrn Pass (between Bosruck and Warscheneck ), today the two Bosruck tunnels lead through the mountain. Both the Pyhrn Autobahn and the Pyhrnbahn run in separate tunnels from Spital am Pyhrn to Ardning / Liezen . The motorway tunnel is 5400 m long and has two tunnel tubes, one in each direction with two lanes. The second tube was opened in July 2013; After the general refurbishment of the existing system, twin-tube operation began in October 2015.
