About

The Flauringer Alm sits at 1,614m in the Zillertal, a major hiking valley in central Tyrol. You reach it from Fügen by hiking northeast through open pasture and larch forest in roughly 2 hours. The approach is straightforward but exposed—start early if the forecast shows afternoon thunderstorms. The hut serves as a waypoint on the Zillertal circuit walks and a base for exploring the surrounding Tux Alps ridges.

The Flauringer Alm is a working dairy farm that also takes hikers. Expect simple accommodation in shared rooms and a small restaurant serving traditional Tyrolean food. The hut operates year-round but staffing is limited in winter, so confirm opening before you visit. Capacity is modest—around 40 beds—so it fills quickly during summer weekends and school holidays. The hut has basic facilities: no hot showers, limited electricity, and a long-drop toilet. This is rustic Alpine accommodation, not a hotel.

Book directly by phone or email well ahead for July and August—at least 4-6 weeks. The hut is popular with families doing easy valley walks and regional hikers doing circuit tours. Shoulder seasons (June and September) are less crowded and the weather is often more stable. The farm produces its own dairy products and cheese, which you can buy or eat at the restaurant.
