The Glödis is 3206  m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Schober group in East Tyrol and is considered to be its most beautiful summit. It is therefore also called the "Matterhorn of the Schober Group". It is an impressive sight from both the Debant valley and the Kalser Lesach valley.

Surname

Franc Miklošič derived the name from the Slavic word "gledna" (= to look ). According to Heinz Pohl, there are two possible derivations of the name, either from early Slovenian “glodišće” (= place that is gnawed by water , to Slovenian “glodati” gnaw ), but this derivation is acoustically difficult; or the probable and word-forming possible derivation of “glodež” with a similar meaning.

In the Debanttal the mountain was called "Großer Gößnitzkopf" for a long time. You can also find the names "Klöders" and "Granatkogel".

Routes

The best way to climb is from the Lienzer Hütte ( 1977  m above sea level ) over the Franz-Keil-Weg, then in the direction of the Kalser Törl and finally over the southeast ridge. In autumn 2006, a via ferrata was installed on the southeast ridge with moderate difficulties ( B ). Other well-known routes are:

  • South-west ridge of the Kalser Törl (II – III, one point III +), popular, more frequented
  • North-east ridge from Glödistörl (III-), coarse-blocky
  • West ridge (IV – V), the most difficult ridge of the Glödis
  • South ridge (III +), solid rock, rarely climbed
