Schönfeldhütte
5.0About
Schönfeldhütte sits at 1410m in the Bavarian Alps, accessed via hiking trails from the surrounding valleys. The hut serves as a base for day walks and multi-day tours through the limestone ranges east of Munich. Approach times vary depending on your starting point—most routes take 2 to 4 hours from the nearest road. The location puts you in the heart of accessible Alpine terrain without the altitude commitment of higher huts.
The DAV Sektion München runs this 36-bed hut with a mix of dormitory and private rooms. The kitchen provides breakfast and evening meals, and showers are available (water can be scarce in late summer, so ask ahead). The hut operates year-round, though services are reduced November to March. Pack a sleeping sheet or use their rental option. This is a working hut focused on hikers, not a tourist facility—expect straightforward accommodation and practical hospitality.
Book by phone directly with the hut for July and August; they fill 2 to 3 months ahead during peak season. Off-season (April to June, September to October) you can usually book with shorter notice. Ring ahead to confirm meal availability and water status in dry spells. The hut accepts cash and card payments.
