Moosangerlalm

Moosangerlalm sits at 1,630m on the northern slopes of the Tennengebirge, 9km south of Abtenau. Reach it from the village of Abtenau (4–5 hours) via the Antental valley, following the marked trail past the Antenbachalm. In summer, the shorter approach runs from Antenau via the Schober pass (3–4 hours). Both routes are well-marked and steep in sections. The hut makes a logical base for traversing the Tennengebirge ridge system or accessing the Hochkönig massif to the south.
Moosangerlalm is run as a working alpine dairy farm. It offers simple meals and beds year-round, though winter capacity depends on advance notice. Count on 30–40 beds spread across dormitory rooms and a few doubles. The kitchen provides hearty fare—cheese, sausage, and hot dishes—rather than restaurant service. You can usually arrange packed lunches. Facilities are basic: no heating beyond the wood stove, cold water from the spring, pit toilets. The farm's operating rhythm matters: arrive early in the afternoon if you want a cooked meal. Contact the hut directly to confirm winter opening.
Book directly by phone or email at least 2–3 weeks ahead in July and August. June, September, and October see fewer visitors and require less notice. The hut is family-run and takes reservations seriously—cancelled bookings should be reported immediately. Winter visits require confirmation a month in advance.
