Overnight on the mountain

Huts for overnight stays in the Semmering-Rax region

A day on the mountain doesn't have to end with the last cable car - it's worth it if you can see the next morning coming. Just an hour away from Vienna, there are numerous opportunities to spend the night in a hut: Whether a conscious time-out on the mountain or a multi-day tour.

Don't forget!

Hut sleeping bag
Hut shoes
Sufficient cash

Those who set off early usually experience the mountain all to themselves.

Raxalm Berggasthof
Ideal for all those who want to be right on the mountain without a long climb: The Raxalm Berggasthof is located directly at the summit station of the Rax cable car and still offers the full mountain experience. Numerous events are also organised here during the year.

Naturfreundehaus Knofeleben
Lots of wood, lots of light - a place where you can come to rest. After a hike up to 1250 metres, nothing stands in the way of a hut holiday in the Vienna Alps.
