Fraganter Shelter
The Fraganter Schutzhaus is located at an elevation of 1,770 m in the beautiful Großfraganter high valley, known for its gentle alpine meadows teeming with flowers.
In the summer, the lodge serves as the ideal base and starting point for mountain tours and hikes, and it’s also well-suited for ski tours and snowshoe hikes in the winter.
Our lodge is part of the “Mit Kindern auf Hütten” (With Children at Mountain Lodges) campaign, an initiative by the Alpine Clubs in Germany, Austria, and South Tyrol promoting family-friendly lodges.
