Gailtal Alps
The Gailtal Alps ((ドイツ語:Gailtaler Alpen) or ''Drauzug''), is a mountain range of the Southern Limestone Alps in Austria. It rises between the River Drava (''Drau'') and the Gail valley in southwestern Carinthia) and through the southern part of East Tyrol. Its western group called "Lienz Dolomites" (''Lienzer Dolomiten''), is sometimes counted as part of this range and sometimes seen as separate.
==Classification==
According to the Alpine Club classification of the Eastern Alps (AVE) the Gailtal Alps (No. 56) are subdivided into the ''Drauzug'' proper and Lienz Dolomites subgroups, while in common parlance the umbrella term ''Drauzug'' conversely applies to the whole Limestone Alps range between the Drava and Gail rivers, including the Gailtal Alps and the Lienz Dolomites. In traditional geography according to Eduard Suess and Leopold Kober, ''Drauzug'' or ''Drau-Save-Zug'' denoted all Southern Limestone Alps ranges stretching along the Drava River, from the Lienz Dolomites in the west to the Karawanks in the east.
Located south of the broad Drava Valley, the Gailtal Alps orographically count as part of the Southern Limestone Alps. However, they rise north of the Periadriatic Seam an therefore geologically do not rank among the Southern Alps ranges. In regard to their orogenesis, they represent the remnants of the limestone nappes which had been moved northwards across the Central Eastern Alps to form the Northern Limestone Alps.
Despite their name, the Lienz Dolomites are not made up of dolostone, though the steep rugged karst topography resembles the South Alpine Dolomite rock formations. The northern Latschur group with Mt. Goldeck near Spittal an der Drau does not consist of limestone rocks, but is a crystalline basement massif.
