About
Florianihütte sits at 2,040m in the Schladming Tauern range, a solid base for ridge traverses and peak bagging in the Styrian Alps. Reach it from Preunegg (near Schladming town) via the Preuneggtal valley in 2.5 to 3 hours of steady hiking. The approach gains 800m elevation through forested terrain, then opens onto alpine meadows as you climb toward the hut. In winter and early spring, snow and avalanche risk make this route serious; check conditions before heading out. From the hut, you can summit Hochgolling (2,863m) in 1.5 hours, tackle the Schladming Tauern ridge, or make longer traverses south toward Riesachsee.
The OeAV-managed hut sleeps around 25 guests across small dormitory rooms and doubles. Hot meals and packed lunches are available with advance notice; bring your own if you arrive outside meal service. Water and basic supplies are on-site. The hut operates year-round, though winter access depends on snow conditions and you should phone ahead. Pit toilet; no shower.
Book directly with the hut by phone or email at least one week ahead, especially July to September and weekends. July and August weekends fill fast—aim for 2 to 3 weeks' notice if possible. June, September and early October offer more availability and better weather stability for ridge work.
