About

DAV-Haus Hammer sits at 750m in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps, serving as a base for day hikes and training climbs across the accessible limestone peaks nearby. You can reach it by car from Munich in around 90 minutes, or by public transport via train to the nearest station followed by a short walk. The hut functions year-round as both a hiking destination and climbing school facility, making it busier during weekends and the main season from May to October.

The hut accommodates around 80 guests in mixed dorm rooms and a handful of private rooms. All-in accommodation with half-board (dinner and breakfast) runs roughly €40–50 per person nightly. Facilities include hot showers, flush toilets, and reliable drinking water. The kitchen serves straightforward Alpine food; self-catering isn't an option. The DAV runs the hut with climbers and hikers in mind, so the atmosphere skews practical rather than resort-like. Winter opening depends on snow and staffing, so confirm availability before traveling between November and April.

Book directly with the hut by phone or email, especially if you need specific room types or have groups larger than 6 people. Weekends fill quickly year-round. July and August require booking at least 4–6 weeks ahead. Off-season (November–April) often has availability, though staff presence is reduced. DAV members get small discounts on accommodation. Bring your DAV membership card or Hütten-Pass if you have one.
