Gleinalm Schutzhaus - alpine hut

At an altitude of 1,600 m, the Gleinalm Mountain Lodge is a retreat far away from roads and the noises of civilization. Gentle alpine meadows, dark forest edges, and the view of the pilgrimage church Maria Schnee create a place full of peace and relaxation in the Graz Region. Those who stop here have already completed a hike or pilgrimage route – and are welcomed with warmth and good food.

The lodge is open from mid-May to mid-September, depending on snow conditions. It is only accessible on foot – usually after about three hours of walking from different directions. The effort is worth it!

Important for arrival: Direct access via the forest road is only possible on market days (June 24, July 2, July 25, August 5, and August 24). The forest road opens at 7:30 AM and closes at 7:00 PM!

For those who want to stay close to nature, there is space in six rustic rooms and a mattress dormitory. Ideal for small groups, families, or solo hikers, with a cozy lodge atmosphere and views. Early reservations are recommended – the alpine summer is short, but all the more precious.
