    The Gamskarkogel Hut (Bad Gasteiner Hut) is located on the highest grass mountain in Europe, the Gamskarkogel, at 2,467 meters. It is one of the oldest mountain huts in the entire Alpine region and was built in 1828 by Archduke Johann. The long climb is rewarded with a fantastic mountain panorama. Sunrises and sunsets with views of the Hohe Tauern, the Tennen and Hagen Mountains, the Hochkönig, the Dachstein and many other peaks are breathtakingly beautiful.

    You also have the option of staying overnight at the Gamskarkogel Hut. You can find out which alpine pastures in the Grossarltal are currently open at:

      13.06.2019 - For the arduous ascent you will be rewarded properly, nice host, good snack, great atmosphere, great views and fair prices - a pity that someday you have to go down into the valley again.

        Nice hosts. Great panorama. Easy terrain. No cable car, so few hikers.
