About
Neue Bamberger Hütte sits at 1756m in the Zillertal, southern Tyrol, serving as a base for hiking in the Zillertal Alps. Reach it from Mayrhofen by driving to the Stillup valley car park, then hiking 2.5 hours via the Stillupbach stream. The approach is steady, not steep, making it accessible for a morning arrival. The hut works equally well as an overnight stop on longer ridge traverses or a weekend base for day walks.
The hut sleeps around 60 guests in mixed and private rooms. It serves three meals daily—breakfast, lunch, and a set dinner menu—using local produce where possible. Showers are available, a rarity at this elevation. The hut operates year-round, though winter access depends on snow conditions. It's staffed by the same family for decades, which means reliable service and consistent cooking rather than seasonal upheaval.
Book 3–4 months ahead for July and August weekends. Contact the hut directly by phone or email to check availability and confirm your arrival time, as meals are prepared to order. The Zillertal is popular with German and Austrian hikers but less crowded than the Ötztal, so shoulder seasons (June and September) offer good conditions with shorter booking lead times. Arrive by 17:00 for dinner if you've booked it.
