About

Haibenalm sits at 1,540m on the Tennengebirge massif east of Salzburg. Reach it from Annaberg-Lungötz in the Lammertal valley. The standard approach takes 2.5 hours and climbs 800m via forest trail and alpine meadow. The hut sits above treeline with views across the northern Salzburg Alps. Bad weather or time constraints? Park near Lungötzerbauer and take the shortcut trail—1.5 hours, 500m ascent.
The OeAV-managed hut sleeps 40 in mixed dormitories. The kitchen serves hot meals at midday and evening; bring cash. Water comes from a spring near the building. The hut has no electricity or shower. Open year-round, though winter access depends on snow conditions and staff availability. Check ahead if you're planning a winter visit.
Phone ahead to confirm availability and meals, especially for weekends or July-August. The hut gets busy with day-hikers on sunny weekends, so arrive early or consider visiting mid-week. Dormitory stays are cheaper than private rooms at lower-altitude valleys and work well as a base for traversing the Tennengebirge ridge.
