Location and landscape
The border between Carinthia ( Spittal district ) and Salzburg ( Lungau , Pongau ) and the watershed between Mur and Salzach ( Grossarltaler Ache ) in the north and Lieser and Malta in the south run through the Hafner ridge between Arlscharte and Katschberg .
The group includes the easternmost three-thousand-meter peaks in the Alps: the highest and eponymous summit is the Große Hafner ( 3,076 m above sea level ). Other high peaks are Lanischhafner ( 3018 m above sea level ), Lanischeck ( 3022 m above sea level ), Gr oßer or Malteiner Sonnblick ( 3030 m above sea level ) and Mittlerer Sonnblick ( 3000 m above sea level ).
The Pöllatal , which divides the eastern part into two ridges, runs through the middle of the Hafner Group , a northern, sharper ridge of the Kareck ( 2481 m above sea level ) to the Katschberg, and a larger southern train with the Schober ( 2976 m above sea level) . ), which runs towards Gmünd .
The southwestern part of Hafner group by the Malta High Alpine Road opened up, originally a Kraftwerkstraße the Malta power plant . On the Lungau side there are several small Keese lakes and the Rotgüldensee , which has been expanded to become the Lungau power plant group's reservoir .
Communities
Mining
Place and field names such as Hüttschlag , Rotgülden , Eisentratten and Waschgang (a mountain peak) testify to earlier mining, as do the Eisentratten blast furnace, the Oberdorfer stamp mill and mouth holes .
Former arsenic mines below the Rotgüldensee
The name Hüttschlag and the coat of arms with the Venus symbol (as a symbol for copper ), mallets and iron refer to the mining industry
