Alpine Pastures & Huts in the Karwendel

Surrounded by majestic mountain peaks, the listed Pfeishütte lies at the head of the Samertal valley in the southern Karwendel mountains at 1,922 metres above sea level. Three traditional Tyrolean dining rooms and a spacious sun terrace offer rest and relaxation to exhausted hikers and bikers during the summer months from June to October. The hut hosts not only serve delicious meals in a breathtaking mountain setting, but also offer overnight accommodation for a maximum of 75 people for multi-day Karwendel adventures (climbing, hiking, biking).

At the Alpine Club Hut, e-bikers will find storage, lock-up and repair facilities. Since 1999, the rustic refuge has been managed entirely sustainably under the strict environmental seal of the Alpine Club.

OVERNIGHT STAY
In summer, from June to October, you can also spend the night in comfort at the listed Alpine Club Hut. A total of 23 places in cosy multi-bed rooms and 37 traditional camp places are available. You can even take a hot shower in the washrooms for a small fee, and delicious half-board meals are also available at the refuge on request. We ask that you reserve your overnight places in good time.

STARTING POINT
The ascent to the Pfeishütte is on wide gravel
