High Student - Summit Tour
If you want to reach two summit crosses in a row within a short time, this tour to the "Hohe Student" is recommended.
German (default)The "Hohe Student" is mostly pronounced feminine, although on the signposts it is called "Hoher Student". An explanation can be found if you do some research on the internet. The name has nothing to do with student. The name probably comes from the Slavic language and comes from "Studena" = the cold one. This probably refers to the karst spring on the northern slope, which is very productive and supplies Halltal and Mariazell with drinking water.
