The Triebenstein is an 1810  m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Niederen Tauern in the Austrian state of Styria in the municipality of Hohentauern .

Location and landscape

The summit lies between Tauernbach to the east, Triebenbach to the north and Sunkbach (Talung ' Sunk ) to the west. The Triebener Tauern pass landscape extends to the south and saddles to the Tauern, Sunk and Pölstal valleys. It thus forms a stick that is relatively free-standing on all sides.

At the foot of the Triebenstein, Triebener Straße B 114 runs over the Tauern, right in the village of Hohentauern . To the west is Mining , an old magnesite and graphite mining area.

While the mountain is usually included in the division of the Eastern Alps  (AVE) with the demarcation along the B 114 to the Rottenmanner and Wölzer Tauern , more geoscientifically oriented structures such as the officially used landscape structure of Styria draw the border more linearly along the Sunk ( Pöls) Disorder ) , and count the mountain to the Seckauer Tauern .

geology

Geologically, in contrast to the largely old crystalline mountain zone of the Wölzer and western Rottenmanner and Seckauer Tauern, the mountain is a stock of Triebenstein limestone from the Veitscher Nappe , that is, sea sediments from the Carboniferous (about 350-300 million years ago) that form the Central Eastern Alpine overburden or the Grauwackenzone heard.

Approaches

Hohentauern is usually the starting point for easy mountain hikes to the summit. From its summit you can see the town of Trieben , large parts of the Ennstal Alps and the Rottenmanner Tauern with the striking Großer Bösenstein .
