About
Langalm sits at 2,283m on the Langtal saddle in the Zillertal Alps, Austria. Approach from Zillertal village via the Zamserbach valley—allow 3 hours for the 7km hike uphill. The trail is well-marked but relentless. In winter, ski mountaineers use the hut as a base for runs down the Zamserbach. Summer access is straightforward hiking; there's no technical terrain.
Langalm is a small, traditional alpine hut with 30 beds. Half-board and full-board meals are available; the kitchen serves Tyrolean staples. There's no shower, but you get a wash basin in your room. The hut opens year-round, though winter visits require ski mountaineering experience and pre-arranged caretaker access. Electricity runs on a generator. Mobile reception is patchy.
Book direct by phone or email at least 2 weeks ahead for July and August weekends. The hut fills quickly on summer Saturdays. Winter bookings should be made 4–6 weeks in advance and confirmed directly with the caretaker. Payment is cash or bank transfer.
