Summer / Winter

Live the Tyrolean summer dream

Put on your hiking boots and walk straight into nature.
At over 1400 meters above sea level, the surrounding peaks such as Gilfert, Kellerjoch, Arbeser, Gamsstein or Gratzkopf are an invitation to hike and enjoy the mountain air. Great roundtrip hikes for insiders: around the Kuhmesser or around Sonntagsköpfl.
With help from the Kellerjochbahn lift (only 1.2 km away) you can reach almost 2000 m . View Kellerjochbahn Summer Opening Times here.

The goods: 
Hiking sticks, backpack, hiking and bike maps with recommendations, headlamp and thermos are at the hut already.

After a tour you can relax here - in the hammock or on the terrace. In the evening you can heat up the stylish grill, cook and laugh in the well-lit kitchen, play mills or chess - enjoy life in its simplicity to the fullest.

The most beautiful hiking trails and bike routes begin directly at the hut.

• Alpine-, mountain farm-, and hut-hiking
• Mountain biking (on forest paths) - Electric bike rental at the Biohotel Grafenast in Hochpillberg (1.2 km)
• Nordic walking, trail-running

Feel the glittering winter magic of Tyrol

The Waldhütte is your ideal starting point for winter and snowshoe hikes, relaxed toboggan rides (200m to the toboggan run), ski tours and alpine skiing at the lift.

Hiking with snowshoes, just like in trapper's times, into the wonderful winter landscape is an unforgettable experience. And the great thing is that snowshoes with poles and sledges are always on hand at the Waldhütte.

Not far, only 1.2 km away, there is a small, fine ski region called "Kellerjoch" , which awaits with family-friendly and sunny slopes up to about 1900m above sea level and also a skischool with rentals and lessons.

There is also the possibility of enjoying the winter magic in Tyrol with two more demanding cross-country ski runs (Naunzalm to Grafenast: 2 km and Grafenast to Bärau: 1.5 km. 

A very special experience: pulling your luggage on the expedition sledge (a speedy "Pulka"). A 1000m walk from the parking lot through the winter forest to the Waldhütte - pure winter fun!

And then after all the exercise in the fresh air, heat up and relax in the sauna or the indoor pool just a short walk to the neighbouring hotels.
