Landshuter-Europa-Hütte

The Landshuter Europa-Hütte (2,693 metres) in the Zillertal Alps is a mountain refuge rich in history and a fine base camp for walks and hikes in the surrounding mountains.

The Landshuter Europa-Hütte is a truly international hut high in the mountains. It lies directly on the border between North Tirol (Austria) and South Tirol (Italy), known in Italian as Alto Adige. The Austrian-Italian border runs directly through the dining room! The "Landshuter Höhenweg" trail leads up over the Tuxer Kamm ridge and gives access to many eye-catching peaks, though walkers and hikers will need good fitness and alpine experience. The hut sleeps 65 people, mainly in dormitory-style rooms with matresses next to each other. It is run by the Landshut Division of the German Alpine Club and the Sterzing Division of the Italian Alpine Club. That explains why four flags can be seen in front of the hut: Tirol, Bavaria, Italy and Europe.
