About
Fredl-Müller-Hütte sits at 1,520m in the Nockberge range of Carinthia, serving hikers on the Nockalmstraße hiking trail and multi-day traverses through the limestone plateaus. Reach it from the Innerkrems valley via the Innerkrems Hut in 2 hours. From Paterno on the Nockalmstraße you can approach in 1.5 hours. The hut works well as a base for ridge walks across the Nockberge or as a waypoint on longer routes towards the Turracher Höhe.
The hut has 40 beds in shared rooms and a simple dining area. The OeAV-managed facility serves hearty Alpine fare at lunch and dinner. Breakfast is available. Water comes from a mountain spring. There is no WiFi. The hut opens from late May through October, with the busiest weeks in July, August and September. Winter service is not available.
Book directly with the hut by telephone or email 4 to 6 weeks ahead for July and August. Outside these months, 2 to 3 weeks is usually sufficient. Arrive by late afternoon to secure a bed and ensure you eat dinner with the group. Half-board rates apply year-round. The hut does not accept online bookings through third-party platforms.
