Wine tasting with the Hillinger winery
Freshly grilled sausages
Sheep meat from the Ennstal Tauern lamb

The Tischlerhütte ski hut is located on the Aberg directly on the piste in the middle of the Hochkönig region of the Schönangerbahn, with a fantastic view of the Steinernes Meer - simply a place to feel good! The favourable piste location guarantees skiing fun for beginners and advanced skiers. If you just want to leave your skis in the valley, it's a 10-minute walk across the slopes to the terrace, where you can enjoy the food and the sun! Hot and cold dishes in our rustic and stylish hut will warm your heart.


...but none is as special as the Tom alpine cabin. This may be due to the fact that in the whole of Maria Alm, no, in the whole of Salzburger Land, there is no other alpine hut with a pug (Choupette is her precious name) as a mascot. But probably also because of how we run our hut. 

In addition to a spectacular mountain panorama, we offer a good dose of taste: modern architecture is combined with rustic hut charm, the bubbly for the sundowner is specially created and the menu delivers what an alpine hut promises. Anyone expecting a classic ski lodge on the mountain will be surprised here - but that's exactly how we like it.
