Huberalm
3.7About
Huberalm sits at 1,250m in the Salzburg Alps, accessed via the Saalach Valley near Lofer. The approach takes 2.5 hours from Lofer village on a well-marked trail that climbs steadily through mixed forest before opening to alpine meadows. The hut also connects to the Lofer-Leoganger Steinberge traverse, making it a natural waypoint for longer mountain trips. Vehicle access via Land Rover is possible from Lofer in summer if you contact ahead.
The hut offers 40 beds in simple shared rooms and serves hearty Austrian meals from their own kitchen. Breakfast is included with overnight stays. Facilities are basic: no hot showers (cold water only), composting toilets, and water from the mountain spring. The hut operates year-round but staffing and meal service vary by season—call ahead for winter stays. Mobile signal is weak to nonexistent.
Contact the hut directly by phone (+43 6588 8213) to book. July and August fill quickly; aim to reserve 4-6 weeks ahead for summer weekends. Shoulder seasons (June, September) are quieter and offer better weather stability for multi-day trips. The hut prefers telephone bookings over email. Half-board is the standard arrangement. Budget €45-55 per night including dinner and breakfast.
