About

The Jausenstation Trojer Alm (Trojeralm) is a family-run mountain inn at 1,810 m in the scenic Trojeralmtal side valley above St. Jakob in Defereggen, East Tyrol. It is a private jausenstation rather than an alpine-club hut, and its purpose is day hospitality: homemade Tyrolean specialities served on a sunny terrace with views across the surrounding Defereggen mountains. It is a popular, relatively gentle destination for families and casual walkers, with a large children's playground and a nature play area beside the Trojeralmbach stream. The alm is reached only on foot: it is about a 45-minute walk from the Trojeralmtal car park, or roughly 1.5 hours from St. Jakob in Defereggen following the Trojeralmbach, along a path lined with woodcarvings. Because it is a day station, it opens for the summer season only, from about May to September, typically from 9:00 to 17:00. It is not a staffed overnight hut, though a simple mattress room can be rented on request. For most visitors it is best treated as a lunch or afternoon stop on an easy valley walk rather than a base for high mountaineering.
