About
The Premhütte stands at 1,531m in the Tennengebirge, roughly 90 minutes' walk from Adnet in the Salzach Valley. From the village, follow the marked path up through forest to reach the hut. The approach is steady rather than steep, making it accessible for hikers new to the Salzburg Alps. The hut sits on a rounded summit with good views across the limestone plateau toward the Dachstein massif to the south.
The Premhütte is small, with around 30 beds across several rooms. It serves hot meals and basic provisions; bring cash. The kitchen cooks simple food—soups, schnitzel, vegetarian options. Drinks and snacks are available all day. The hut has no electricity or running water, relying on a spring. Toilets are basic pit latrines. Opening times vary; it typically operates weekends year-round and daily from May to October. Check ahead before visiting outside summer months, as staffing is unpredictable.
The hut belongs to the Austrian Alpine Club (ÖAV) and accepts both club members and non-members. Book ahead for weekends and all of July and August, especially if you need half-board (dinner, bed, breakfast). Contact the hut directly by phone or ask at the ÖAV Salzburg section. The Premhütte works well as a base for exploring the Tennengebirge's network of trails, or as a single-night stop on longer routes. Plan to arrive by mid-afternoon to secure a meal from the kitchen.
