The Pollereshütte is located just before the summit of the Sonnwendstein. It is a very hospitable mountain hut. They have very good coffee and world-class curd cheese strudel with vanilla sauce. Here, too, you can enjoy the beautiful view with a cup of coffee. My dogs were welcome. In summer there are grazing cattle in the vicinity of the hut, which occasionally camps directly on the path. I had enough space to evade, my dogs were good and the cattle seemed very relaxed. I will be happy to come again!

Hiking

The Pollereshütte is located at 1,481 meters on the southern slope of the Sonnwendstein and is a popular rest stop for hikers. From the sunny terrace, you can enjoy magnificent views of the Rax, Schneeberg, the Semmering region, and the Bucklige Welt. Here, you can enjoy the view with a hearty snack before continuing on to the summit or heading back down to the valley.

Unfortunately the hut is closed at the moment - because of new takeover - spring 2018 should have opened again !!!
