Mountain huts and inns in summer

Mountain huts in Ski amadé

Let yourself be tempted by the summer alpine huts with their natural and authentic delicacies.

    Just imagine:

    A lush alpine meadow, a rustic alpine hut, a warm “Griaß di” from the hut warden, a delicious Brettljause, a little digestif, an unforgettable sunset behind the fantastic mountain panorama, a cosy bed, a restful sleep in which you dream of a perfect day’s hiking.

    In Ski amadé, you can make this dream come true at any time. Enjoy a leisurely hike from hut to hut and treat yourself to the dairy farmers’ delicacies along the way. Delicious cheese, home-smoked bacon, traditional homemade sausages and fresh farmhouse bread are served here with warm hospitality. From family-friendly to high-alpine, you can tailor your route to suit your preferences.

    You really shouldn’t miss these highlights

    For cheese connoisseurs
    You really must try Steirerkas whilst you’re here. There are many rumours surrounding the production of this traditional alpine cheese from the Schladming-Dachstein holiday region. This tangy, aromatic grey cheese is served on buttered bread, in Steiererkrapfen or as Kasnocken.

    To ensure the whole family can enjoy the home-made delicacies to the full, our summer lifts take you up the mountain in comfort. The Gastein Valley is the ideal starting point for all kinds of hikes – from leisurely themed trails to scenic walks. Numerous alpine huts are particularly child-friendly and easily accessible thanks to the Gastein mountain railways.
