The place is 32 kilometers north of Judenburg , 6 km as the crow flies south of the city of Trieben in the Paltental . It is located on Triebener Straße  (B114).

The village of Hohentauern is located directly on the saddle of the Triebener Tauern Pass  ( 1270  m above sea level ). To the north rises the Triebenstein  ( 1810  m above sea level ), south of the Geierkogel  ( 2231  m above sea level ) the Wölzer Tauern , with the Wirtsgupf ( 1627  m above sea level ) as the local mountain of the place. It includes around 180 addresses. Next to the old village center there is the Wirtsalmsiedlung zum Wirtsgupf, and the settlements Almdorf , Herzogbichl , Gartengasse , Sonnenhang and Scheipplsiedlung to the west.

The village of Hohentauern , with a good 300 inhabitants (January 1, 2020: 309), also includes the old miners' village of Bergbau , and the scattered houses of the pass landscape (listed as Hohentauern-scattered houses ), including the Moscher holiday village and the mountain locations on Bösenstein  ( 2448  m above sea level ) of the Rottenmanner Tauern , such as the Edelrautehütte , the Kreutbauernalm and the Scheibelalm .

The cadastral community of Hohentauern , on the other hand, comprises the entire community, including the Triebental .

History, infrastructure and sights

It is unclear whether the Roman road Virunum - Ovilava (Zollfeld - Wels), which goes back to pre-Roman old roads , actually led here over the pass and down the Triebental to Trieben; a more straight route over the Kreuzbergalm - Hölleralm area west of the Sunk also appears possible . The location of the post station (Mansio) Tartursanis , which is generally identified with Hohentauern, is also unknown, as there are no archaeological findings.

A first mention is also unclear, sites such as ultra Thaurum montem 1139 may have referred to mountains, passes or locations. The map from Vischer 1678 gives am Tauern.

The Kirchweiler around 1830 (lithograph, JF Kaiser)

In any case, the Altweg was used for the framing from the High Middle Ages . This is where the Tauernwirt, proven before 1300, stood . The first church was built in the 14th century (first documented mention in 1363); today's Bartholomäkirche was built in Gothic style around 1490. It was a branch of St. Lorenzen and belonged to the Admont Abbey . The vicarage was only moved here in the early 19th century from the old rectory on the shoulderer Höhe , which had previously been the archducal forester's house (now the Daxler inn ). The place only became a parish seat in 1892. Until the late 19th century the place - also called Oberthauern or written Hochenthauern - was only a small hamlet around the church. Of the few old farmsteads around, the Scheipplhof , which is a listed building, is particularly interesting.

The local growth did not begin until the 1960s, when the old mining settlement for magnesite and graphite mining was abandoned and relocated to the town. At that time, tourism began with the small Hohentauern ski area on the Wirtsgupf. Today the place operates winter and summer tourism.

The pile dwelling village of Hohentauern was built on the Weberteich, which documents the importance of the old path. The heritage-protected Scheibelalm on the Bösenstein, which has been preserved in its original appearance, is also worth seeing .
