Söldenhütte
3.7About
Söldenhütte sits at 1,531m in the Salzburg Alps near Sölden, on a broad shoulder with views north toward the Tennengebirge. Most hikers reach it from Sölden village (30 minutes by car from Salzburg city) in 1.5 hours on a well-marked trail—start from the Gasthof Wörgötter and follow the westward path through mixed forest that opens to alpine meadow. The ascent is steady but not steep, roughly 500m elevation gain. You can also approach from Bad Vigaun to the south (2.5 hours) or link it into longer traverses across the Salzburg foothills.
The hut sleeps around 50 people in mixed dorms and a few double rooms. The OeAV Sektion Salzburg operates it with straightforward alpine hut meals—expect hearty soups, schnitzel, and local dairy. A small bar serves coffee and beer. There's no shower, but washrooms and toilets are standard. Water comes from a spring on the property. The hut opens year-round, though facilities are limited in winter (phone ahead). It's a working farmer's hut as much as a hiking destination, so don't expect fuss or fittings.
Book direct by phone (+43 6245 7207) or email. July and August weekends fill fast—aim for mid-week or book two weeks ahead. June and September are quieter. The hut is straightforward Austrian hospitality: solid food, a warm room, and a good base for day walks across the northern Salzburg Alps.
