The cold ice is 734  m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Hausruck-und-Kobernaußerwald-Zug in the Hausruckviertel in Upper Austria .

Location and landscape

The summit is located in the municipality of Pöndorf (Vöcklabruck district, south side). It is located in the ridge that runs south from the main ridge of the Hamberg mountain range (up to  722  m above sea level ) over the Schranne  ( 727  m above sea level ). Here on the Cold Ice the ridge divides. A ridge stretches south to the Meisterholz  ( 711  m above sea level ), which is then surrounded by the Bruckwiesenbach to the (Fornacher) Redl . A second ridge goes south-west over the Florianikapelle  ( 691  m ) to Geretseck and then runs out into the Krenwald near Straßwalchen .

To the northwest, the Rabenbachtal leads to the Hochecker Schwemmbachtal and thus to Mattig and Inn , to the west lies the Fornacher Redltal, which drains with the Bruckwiesenbach to Vöckla and over the Ager to the Traun .

The mountain is mostly counted as part of the Kobernaußerwald (western part of the train), partly also to the Hausruck (eastern part) - the demarcation is seen somewhere here in the room.

History and Development

The name is likely to be of Slavic origin, -eis is a typical Windisch educational syllable .

In the Franciscan cadastre of the 1830s there is a small hill settlement called Branauer and an important border tree. It is said to have been an inn here. A single hut still stands today. A chapel is said to have stood in the vicinity even earlier, as Carl Schütz noted in 1787, south of Meisterholz, a St. Wolfgang. It should have expired in the 1830s.

The mountain can be reached from all sides on numerous forest roads, through the valleys as well as on the ridges. A forest road also runs along the ridge itself. This makes the area a good hiking and mountain biking area.
