    Photo: Martin Soutschek, Outdooractive Premium
The Untere Ochsenalpe is beautifully situated on the slopes of the Iseler at just under 1200 m.
The hut is open all year round and offers a great starting point for walks, hiking tours or via ferrata adventures in summer, as well as skiing in winter. The Alpe is managed and offers overnight accommodation for 18 people in two- and six-bed rooms.

The hosts attach great importance to the regional origin of their products, which are sourced exclusively from local businesses. This is why they are also members of the Allgäuer Alpgenuss e.V. association.

Opening times

Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in summer and winter, Monday is a day off.
