Edenalpe Nesselwängle

Edenalpe Nesselwängle sits at 1,680m in the Tannheim Valley, a quiet corner of northern Tyrol near the Allgäu border. The hut is accessible via a 2.5-hour walk from Nesselwängle village, starting from the Alpstation car park and climbing steadily through beech and spruce forest. In winter, approach is possible only on foot or skis. The location works well as a base for exploring the Tannheimer Berge ridges and as a link in longer valley-crossing routes through the Vils Valley.
The hut holds 12 beds across shared rooms. Meals are home-cooked and hearty—expect traditional Tyrolean fare using local ingredients. There's a small bar area, and basic washing facilities are available. The hut operates year-round, though staffing and opening hours vary by season; contact ahead in winter. No electricity from the grid; power comes from a small hydroelectric system. The outdoor terrace has views down the valley but no views of major peaks—this is pastoral Alpine farming country, not dramatic summitry.
Book directly by email or phone well ahead for summer weekends and autumn school holidays. July and August typically fill 6–8 weeks in advance. The hut welcomes both casual hikers and serious mountain walkers; it's a genuine working Alpine pasture, not a tourist facility. The owners are members of the Austrian Alpine Club (OeAV) network.
