    Hiking

    The Similaun Hut is located at an elevation of 3,019 meters on the Niederjoch Pass, directly on the border between Austria and Italy. The hut is surrounded by the breathtaking glaciers of the Ötztal Alps, and if you haven't yet experienced a sunrise in the mountains, this is the place to do it.

    At 3,019 meters one of the very high-altitude huts in the Alps, the international public gives a stay in this cute hut a very special flair.
