Adamek Hut
Welcome to the Adamek Hut!
A mountain hut operated by the Austrian Alpine Club
The Adamek Hut, at 2,196—known among insiders as the “Train Station of the Alps”— captivates visitors with its unique location on the Dachstein Glacier. Once surrounded by the glacier, today it’s a gathering place for mountaineers, hikers, climbers, and groups.
In just a few minutes, you can reach the glacier foreland, where a glacier nature trail has been established in recent years. An hour’s walk further on, you’ll reach the first glacier tongues of the Dachstein Glacier, which are constantly accompanied by the roaring meltwater.
Fans of alpine adventures can test their climbing skills at the Schreiberwand climbing area or on the classic alpine routes from the Schneebergwand all the way to the Dachstein. We always strive to provide up-to-date information on route conditions.
At the Adamekhütte, which offers meals, you can, of course, stay in a dormitory or a shared room. For this purpose, we ask our guests to make a reservation by phone in advance, as there is no permanent internet access available at the hut.
Equipment Rental
Rental equipment (climbing helmet, climbing harness, rope, crampons) is available upon request.
