Hut hike Hike to the Berghaus Außergschlöss

Matrei in Osttirol / Venediger Group
Difficulty ratings: easy
Route length: 5.2 km
Duration: 1:45 h

At Berghaus Außergschlöß we would like to recommend three views: the unobstructed view of the glaciated Großvenediger, the otherwise rare view of bearded vultures in the wild, and in between the view of your own plate, which is always lovingly prepared here.

Tour character

Easy, flat hike on a wide path through the Tauerntal valley to Berghaus Außergschlöß with a magnificent view of the Großvenediger. As there is a bearded vulture nest in the immediate vicinity of the hut, there is a very good chance of spotting bearded vultures in the wild.
