Amoseralm
3.6About
Amoseralm sits at 1,175m in the Salzburg Alps, on the Salzach Valley floor near Unken. The hut is easily reached by car—there's a small car park at the base—or by foot from Unken village (roughly 1 hour). It's a working alpine farm as much as a hut, set among pastures and forest. Most visitors use it as a lunch stop or rest point on longer valley walks rather than as an overnight base.
The hut serves simple food: schnitzel, kaiserschmarrn, soups, and local cheese. They have a small dining room and a terrace with views across the Salzach Valley. Capacity is modest—around 40 people indoors—so it's best visited outside peak weekends. Toilets are basic but functional. No accommodation is offered. The hut operates year-round, though winter conditions can close mountain access.
Phone +43 6278 8341 or call ahead before visiting. Weekdays are quieter than Saturdays and Sundays. It's a straightforward, no-frills stop for hikers doing valley routes through the Saalach or Salzach areas—exactly what you need on a long day.
