Hochsitz Riesneralm

Outside and inside great

The ski hut on the mountain station of the Riesneralm, which has a slightly different appearance, is probably unique in the Alps. The modern exterior of the Hochsitz offers typical hut flair inside with a Zirbenstube, lounge and summit bar. Typical Austrian dishes for young and old are served, but international dishes are also on the menu.

In summer as well as in winter, not only the large panoramic terrace offers magnificent views of the surrounding mountains. Also on the event stage, the music groups attract all the attention during the events at the summit. And the Gipfelbad - more or less in the entrance area to the hut - is the eye-catcher par excellence anyway.

The menu also includes vegetarian dishes. On request, the dishes are also prepared vegan, gluten-free or lactose-free.
