About

Greizer Hütte sits at 2,227m in the Zillertal Alps, accessible from the Zillertal valley floor via the Greizer Weg trail. The approach takes roughly 3 hours from Mayrhofen or the surrounding villages. The hut lies on established hiking routes connecting the Zillertal with neighbouring valleys, making it a solid mid-range stop for valley-to-valley tours or day hikes from the valley.

The hut holds 74 beds across multiple rooms. The DAV Sektion Greiz manages it and serves meals from a kitchen with regional Austrian fare. Expect solid mountain food rather than fine dining. The hut has no showers, so wash facilities are basic. The hut operates year-round, though it closes occasionally for maintenance—confirm availability before booking. Electricity and heating are standard. The location works well for walkers exploring the Zillertal, or those using it as a base for peak attempts in the 2,600–2,900m range nearby.

Book direct with DAV Sektion Greiz by email or phone. July and August fill rapidly—aim to reserve at least 4–6 weeks ahead for those months. Spring and autumn are quieter and easier to accommodate on shorter notice. Weekend bookings during summer climb quickly. Off-season (November to April) is much easier to book, though weather conditions dictate accessibility. Confirm directly about any seasonal closures before planning your trip.
