About

Rießerkopf Haus sits at 1,096m in the Ammergau Alps near Unterammergau, a working base for day hikes into the limestone karst above the Ammer valley. Reach it in 1.5 hours on foot from Unterammergau village, heading uphill through mixed forest on a well-marked trail. The hut is accessible by car via a forest road, though most visitors arrive on foot or by mountain bike.
This is a traditional Bavarian hut run as a family operation. It sleeps around 40 guests across dormitory and double rooms. The kitchen serves hearty Bavarian food—expect roasted meats, käsespätzle, and fresh salads using local produce. Half and full board available. There's no WiFi, so come ready to disconnect. The hut runs year-round, though it closes Mondays and Tuesdays outside peak season. The small beer garden catches afternoon sun and works well for groups.
Book direct by phone, especially for weekends and holidays. June through September sees steady use from families and hiking groups. July and August can fill weeks ahead. The hut offers good value compared to Alpine huts further east, and the Ammergau location means fewer crowds than the Wetterstein or Karwendel ranges. Winter access depends on snow conditions; confirm before traveling in December through March.
