Description

The Stallwiesalm is a popular alpine hut above Sölden, offering traditional Tyrolean cuisine, a sunny terrace, and a peaceful location. It can be reached by two different routes: a wide forest road or a shorter, steeper woodland trail.

Option 1: Via the Forest Road (easy & family-friendly)

The hike begins at the Freizeit Arena in the center of Sölden. From there, follow the Granbichlstraße uphill to the barrier near the edge of the forest. Here, a well-maintained forest road winds gently through a quiet wooded area. Along the way, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the Ötztal valley. After about 1.5 hours, you reach the Stallwiesalm at 1,842 m, a cozy alpine hut perfect for a break.

Option 2: Via the Woodland Trail (shorter & steeper)

Also starting from the Freizeit Arena, a marked hiking trail branches off from the forest road shortly after the barrier. This steep forest path leads more directly up the mountain. It’s a shorter option – around 1 hour of walking time – but requires sturdy footwear and good footing, especially if the ground is wet.

At 1,842 m, Stallwiesalm offers hearty local dishes, homemade desserts, and a relaxed mountain atmosphere. The hut is family-friendly, with outdoor seating and a small play area for children.
