Moaalm
3.6About
Moaalm sits at 1,410m in the Zillertal valley, roughly 90 minutes' walk from Mayrhofen. The hut lies on the main valley trail heading south towards Finkenberg, making it an easy half-day objective from the village or a logical stop on longer routes through the Zillertal. Access is straightforward: follow the marked path from Mayrhofen along the valley floor, gaining minimal elevation.
The hut is a traditional working alpine farm and simple guesthouse. It serves as a refreshment stop rather than an overnight refuge, though beds are available if you're planning to stay. Expect hearty farm cooking and local Tyrolean fare. The atmosphere is quiet and rural—this is a functioning dairy operation, not a busy mountain hut. The season runs roughly May through October, depending on weather.
Book direct with the hut by phone if you want overnight accommodation. Day visitors simply turn up. Summer weekends can get busy with valley walkers, but midweek is quieter. The hut doesn't take online reservations, so confirm availability by calling ahead, particularly if planning an overnight stay during July and August.
