Welcome to the Gaudeamus Hut
Here we’ve compiled all the important information you’ll need for your visit. Each host provides further details on amenities, how to get here, and access routes, as well as suggested tours.
Our hut is part of the “Mit Kindern auf Hütten”(With Kids at Mountain Huts) campaign, an initiative by the Alpine Clubs in Germany, Austria, and South Tyrol promoting family-friendly huts. It’s suitable for children ages 3 to 4 and older. Our activity areas for children include: an alpine pasture with grazing animals; plenty of chamois; an easy via ferrata (Jubiläumsklettersteig) for children with via ferrata gear; a children’s hut with play areas in the forest; swimming spots in the valley; a slackline at the hut owner’s place; a rock-building area in the stream bed
If you still have any questions, please contact us directly.
We look forward to your visit!
