About
Jausenstation Raineralm sits at 1,580m on the Raineralm plateau in the Salzburg Alps, reached via the Saalach valley south of Bad Reichenhall. The hut lies on the main hiking route between Weißbach and Lofer, making it a natural lunch stop on longer ridge traverses. Approach from Weißbach village (45 minutes) or from the Lofer valley (90 minutes). Both routes climb steadily but without technical difficulty.
This is a simple mountain inn rather than an overnight hut. It serves as a refueling point for day hikers and ridge walkers crossing the Raineralm. Expect hearty Alpine food—schnitzel, kaiserschmarrn, regional cheese and bread. The hut operates a small dining room and terrace with views north toward Unken. Opening hours run May through October, weather dependent. Capacity is modest; it's not designed as a shelter for groups. Water and toilets are available.
Book ahead for weekends and school holidays, especially July and August, by emailing directly. The hut operates on a walk-in basis during quieter periods but can reach capacity by mid-morning on fine weather days. Call or email the day before if you're planning to visit on a Saturday or Sunday. Arrival by mid-afternoon ensures a table and full menu selection.
