Anton-Renk-Hütte
4.3About
The Anton-Renk-Hütte sits at 2,261m in the Zillertal Alps of South Tyrol. Reach it from Mayrhofen valley via the Zamser Grund trail in roughly 2.5 hours. The hut also connects to the Zillertal High Route, making it a logical stop on multi-day traverse routes through the region.
The hut offers 50 beds across mixed dormitories and a handful of private rooms. Half-board (bed, dinner, breakfast) is standard. The kitchen serves solid mountain fare—expect Tyrolean specialties and hearty vegetarian options. Water comes from a spring above the hut; shower facilities are basic but functional. The hut operates from mid-June through mid-September, closing for winter and spring snowmelt.
Book direct with the hut keeper from March onward. July and August demand advance planning—aim for bookings 4-6 weeks out. The hut sits on SAT (South Tyrolean Alpine Club) land and can advise on route conditions and weather. Check current opening dates before travel, as snow cover varies year to year.
