Imposante Firngipfel, einsame Bergspitzen, grandiose Wanderungen: Weißkugel, Bärenbartkogel, Rabenkopf, Saldurspitz und -seen. Rund um unsere Hütte ist für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei! Unsere Schutzhütte steht inmitten der landschaftlich einmaligen Matscher Bergwelt. Sie wandern vorbei an der höchstgelegenen Seengruppe Südtirols. Außer über den neu errichteten Hüttenzustieg können Sie uns aber auch über den Matscher Höhenweg erreichen.
Unsere Hütte beteiligt sich an der Initiative Mit Kindern auf Hütten, die von über 100 familienfreundlichen Hütten der Alpenvereine in Deutschland, Österreich und Südtirol mitgetragen wird. Unsere Hütte eignet sich für Kinder ab 7 bis 8 Jahren. Besondere Erlebnisbereiche für Familien mit Kindern sind: Wanderung zu den Saldurseen – Südtirols höchstgelegenem Seenplateau, Gletscherbegehung, die Klamm am Talschluss des Matschertals sowie der Klettergarten mit verschiedenen Schwierigkeitsstufen in Hüttennähe.

Gemütliche Alpenvereinshütte am Fuße der Weißkugel mit grandioser Aussicht und einmaliger Ruhe.
