About

DAV-Haus Hammer sits at 750m in the Hammer valley, 20km south of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Reach it by car via the Hammersbach valley road (30 minutes from Garmisch), or hike 2–2.5 hours from the town centre. The hut serves as a base for day walks into the Wetterstein massif and approaches to higher peaks like Alpspitze and Hochplatteau. Winter access depends on snow conditions and road maintenance.
The hut offers 40–50 bed spaces in mixed and family rooms. Meals include breakfast and dinner; packed lunches available on request. Hot showers and flush toilets are standard. The DAV Sektion München und Oberland maintains the building year-round, though staffing varies seasonally. Water comes from a spring on-site. No generator noise or industrial lighting—the focus is on straightforward mountain hospitality.
Book direct with the hut or through the DAV Sektion München und Oberland website. July and August fill quickly; reserve 4–6 weeks ahead for these months. Weekend bookings in shoulder seasons (May–June, September–October) need 2–3 weeks' notice. Winter stays require confirmation of access. DAV members receive modest discounts on overnight rates.
