We just stopped in for a rest without spending the night. The service was very quick and friendly, the beer was good, the dishes around us all looked rich and delicious. I can recommend the Kaiserschmarrn with plum, it was delicious. Quite a large outdoor terrace. Recommended.

Fantastically located hut with very nice pets, great views of the Ais, delicious cake and plenty of seating. Price-performance ratio absolutely fine. 0.5 liter spritzer 4.50 euros and a large piece of home-baked cake also 4.50 euros. I find that absolutely appropriate. The stuff all has to get up there somehow and you're not somewhere in the valley next to the supermarket. There are toilets that consist of a drainless pit and outhouse due to the lack of a sewer system. It should be clear to everyone that this smells different than a water closet. That's why I can't understand some of the reviews here or what demands some people have on an economy at an altitude of 1,400 m. We were extremely satisfied.

Blackcurrant spritzer costs just under €5, service was friendly. View great. Unfortunately, the toilets smell very bad as there is no running water in the hut.
