The Wilhelm Eichert Hütte is one of the oldest and highest serviced refuges on the Hohe Wand. With its idyllic location on the "Große Kanzel" plateau, it is a popular meeting place for nature lovers, mountain hikers, tourers, via ferrata users and climbers.

The Wilhelm Eichert hut will open again at the beginning of May. Michelle Brandstätter and Sebastian Mika are new tenants. The Wilhelm-Eichert-Hütte is not only one of the oldest huts, but at 1052 meters above sea level it is also the highest serviced mountain hut on the Hohe Wand.

At the beginning of March, the operators at the time, the Teubl family, closed the hut for personal reasons. Since then, the responsible ÖTK section in Wiener Neustadt has been urgently looking for new tenants. According to chairman Josef Zwickl, there was a "sizable number of applicants who wanted to take over the hut". Now there is a fixed solution. "We decided on a young team that wants to lead the hut with new ideas and a lot of commitment in the coming years," says Zwickl, pleased about the commitment of Michelle Brandstätter and Sebastian Mika, who are taking over the fortunes of the hut.

The Eichert hut is located on one of the most beautiful places on the plateau Hohe Wand: the Great Pulpit. With fabulous views and views you can enjoy the best pastries or forget the everyday life in one of the beach chairs provided. Optionally you can make yourself comfortable on the extensive lawn in front of the house.
