    The Schafhütt’n in Gießhübl is a charming little place to stop for a bite to eat right next to the Kuhheide hiking car park – ideal for a rest before or after a hike in the Vienna Woods 🌲🐑.

      Cozy hut right next to the parking lot, suitable for a stop at the end of a hike.

        Schafhüttn is the name of an inn in Gießhübl, a town in the Vienna Woods. The inn is located on a large parking lot, which serves as a starting point for various hikes. The inn offers various food and drinks, such as schnitzel, goulash or beer. The inn has a long tradition and was opened in 1926. It is also known as Schafalm because it used to be a sheep pasture.

          Was there today, looks really comfortable - I have to come here once the hut is open

                  Directly at the toll parking or the bus stop, so the ideal start or v.a. also endpoint.

                    📷 04.06.2016 - The most comfortable place on the Kuhheide - The Schafhütt`n on the Kuhheide is a small, extremely cozy restaurant with a short but tasty menu. In the warm season, when you can sit in front of the hut on the Kuhheide, you can enjoy an excellent fish offer on Thursdays.
                    The restaurant is the successor to the mobile hut that the sheep farmer "Sepp" Überlacher had put into operation on the Kuhheide about 10 years ago. His daughter Andrea and her husband Hari tend not only the sheep huts but also the cow heath and graze their sheep there.
                    Open from 12 noon. Days of rest are Monday and Tuesday. 😊👍👍👍👍

                      Now known as the "Black Sheep," it once again boasts a small but fine menu. Open Thursdays to Sundays from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m., but only in good weather. It's usually closed when it rains.
