The Obere Gemstelalpe (1694 m) lies on a small high cirque in the higher part of the Gemstel valley. The hiking trail from the Hintere Gemstelalpe - i.e. the valley floor - leads directly past the alp via the "Sprengten Weg" and then continues in the direction of the Widdersteinhütte or Sterzer Hütte and Geißhorn.

The alp is used for gastronomy, so a material cable car runs from the Hintere Gemstelalpe to the Obere Gemstelalpe. This cozy alpine inn is only open in summer and offers hearty snacks, deer sausages from our own range and homemade cakes.

From here you have a great view of the Walser mountains and wildlife. With a bit of luck you can see ibex, chamois or red deer.

Open: until around the beginning of October. No closing day. Rustic, quietly located hut with a unique view of the Walser mountains and wildlife. Ibex, chamois and red deer can be seen here.

Hearty snacks, venison sausages from our own hunt and homemade cakes invite you to stop by. Walserbus line 1 stop - Mittelberg Gemse.

After a steep climb of around one hour from the Hintere Gemstelhütte, the Obere Gemstelalpe is located at 1692 meters.
