Our special mountain biking tour tips

  • the Hallstättersee-Koppenwinkel-Round – 30 km, 150 metres of change in altitude – wonderful sight to the village of Hallstatt – nature of Koppenwinkelsee
  • the Weissenbach Round – 21 km, 240 metres of change in altitude – our tour for the afternoon after your trip
  • the Hochmuth-Round – 23 km, 500 meters of change in altitude – nice tour for half- a – day
  • the Blaa-Alm Round– 45.5 km, 960 metres of change in altitude – a classic to get started and get to know the region, but also THE tour to take when it is very hot, since most of the change in altitude has to be conquered at the beginning of the tour and Altaussee Lake is a welcome stop off to cool down

  • the Kaiser Tour – 38 km, 770 metres of change in altitude – The tour doesn't just earn its name Kaiser Tour because it leads through the forests and along the paths that Franz and Sis once travelled on foot and by carriage, but primarily because of the highlights it offers. You will see the Ewige Wand and the Tauernweg to Ischl and it has lots of cozy cabins with the Ratluck'n and Hoisenradalm to offer.
  • the Sandling-Round - 35 km, 1350 metres of change in altidude – have a break at lake Altausee and a Kaiserschmarrn at the Hütteneck-hut
  • the Raschberg Round – 52.50 km, 1,610 metres of change in altitude – Into the Ausseerland and over the challenging Grabenbach back up to the Raschberg – marvelous view of one of the best-known mountain meadows in the Salzkammergut – the Hütteneckalm – the Kaiserschmarrn alone is reason enough for a visit!
  • the Durchgangsalm-Round – 48 km, 1380 Hütteneckalm – The tour starts on Lake Hallstatt and leads along the new bike path with a view of the world-famous city of Hallstatt before the path becomes steep in the Echerntal on the way to Gosau – a tour that offers everything – beautiful views, cosy meadows, challenging inclines and declines.
  • the Salzkammergut 5 Lake Tour (lake Wolfgangsee, Schwarzensee, etc.) – 60 km, 1350 Hütteneckalm – Mountains and lakes: a combination that the Salzkammergut presents spectacularly, beautiful views and also very appropriate for bikers who without a lot of technical skills.

Visit the Zwiselalm Hut in the Zwieselalm Area!

Holiday at the hut

The Zwieselalm hut (1,440m) is a rustic, cosy, approx. 300-year-old alpine hut. It is an ideal excursion destination for the whole family. Here, hikers and mountain bikers find peace and relaxation - which was already worth a visit to the Zwieselalm to the young Empress Sisi. The great view over the alpine pasture to the surrounding mountains such as the Gosaukamm and the Dachstein, let you forget the stress of everyday life. Enjoy the beautiful hours with a tasty alp snack.


Our alp can be reached either from Gosau or the Lake Gosau via well-maintained hiking trails. The third option is the ascent with the cable car "Gosaukammbahn". From the mountain station you hike comfortably to the alpine hut. The 30-minute walk takes you past magnificent flora and mountain landscapes and is definitely a worthwhile excursion.

In summer

Numerous hikes can be started directly from our hut. The Via ferrata Donnerkogel can also be reached from us. You are welcome to climb the via ferrata with a guide. Please contact LasererAlpin or Outdoor Leadership directly. 

Our hut is closed in winter, but you are welcome to book a holiday in our Guesthouse Jäger

We are looking forward to your visit!
