Ignaz-Mattis Hut at Giglachsee

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Ignaz Mattis Hut is located in a secluded location high up in the Schladminger Tauern. Directly below the hut are the Giglach lakes in a barren high mountain valley - Alpine Panorama Deluxe. Around 60 mountaineers can stay overnight in the rustic hut. The hut is a perfect base for many summit tours in the Schladminger Tauern and is also a good stopover on a hut tour lasting several days.

All further information and booking at alpenverein.at/ignazmattishuette.
