    Mountaineering

    The hut, located on the north side of the Schneeberg, in the Breiten Ries, is a mountain rescue shelter. It was named after Ferdinand Bürkle, a co-founder of the Viennese alpine rescue service. Bürkle, born on January 1, 1857 in Bürs/Vorarlberg, trained as a teacher in Innsbruck and then worked as a teacher in Puchberg for over 20 years. He was a strict vegetarian and did not drink alcohol. He supported the villagers in every way, took on official and legal matters, and based on his idea, a dairy cooperative was founded there.

    Mountaineering

    The hut is unmanned, but it's a cozy place to rest on sturdy wooden benches and tables. If you're climbing from Schneebergdörfl, you've definitely earned a rest. After all, you've already climbed about 500 meters in altitude.
