Hiking

Ojstrc (Hochobir) is the highest peak of the small mountain called Obir. It is located west of the Iron Kapre (Eisenkappel) on the Austrian side of the Karavanke. From the panoramic summit on which the cross is located and the meteorological station, there is a beautiful view of the northern shores of Košuta, part of the Kamniške and Savinjske Alps, and to the north you can see the Mali Obir (Kleinobir) and the Drava valley. Obir is also known for its rich flora, which is not missing on the mountain. The path is light and beautifully marked.
