About

Grillerhütte sits at 1763m in the Sölk valley south of Gröbming in Styria. The hut is reached from the village of Sölk via the Sölktal road, then by hiking trail. From Sölk village allow 2.5 to 3 hours on foot. The approach is steady and well-marked, gaining around 400m elevation through larch forest and alpine meadow.

The hut operates year-round and offers simple accommodation in a mix of dormitory and private rooms for up to 50 guests. Half-board is standard: dinner and breakfast are included with your room rate. The kitchen serves straightforward Styrian fare. In summer the hut does a brisk trade with day-hikers heading higher into the Sölk Alps. Facilities include hot showers and toilets. The hut manager rents out mountain bikes in summer for exploring the valley.

Book direct with the hut by phone or email. July and August weekends fill fast—book at least 6 weeks ahead. The hut is popular with groups heading to Zirbitzkogel (2396m) or doing multi-day traverses across the Sölk range. Midweek in June and September is quieter. The hut is managed by the Sölk Valley tourism office and lies within OeAV territory.
