About

Innichner Alm sits at 1706m on the slopes above San Candido in the Puster Valley. Reach it in 2.5 hours from the village of Innichen by following the marked trail through mixed forest and alpine meadow. The hut stands on the eastern edge of the Sexten Dolomites, making it a solid base for day walks into the Tre Cime area or longer traverses across the range.

The hut runs 80 beds across multiple dormitories and private rooms. Staff serve full board (breakfast, lunch, packed lunch, dinner) or half board. The kitchen handles vegetarian diets and regional specialities well. Showers are available. The hut opens year-round, though winter access depends on snow conditions—confirm before visiting December to March. Mobile reception is patchy; call ahead to check conditions.

Book from May onwards for July and August weekends. July fills fastest. Contact the hut directly by phone or email; they respond within 24 hours. Half-board typically costs €60–75 per person per night. Arrive by mid-afternoon to secure parking near the trailhead in high season. The hut sits on private land; respect the surrounding pasture and don't camp rough nearby.
