Adolf Nossberger Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A super friendly hut and a top-notch chef. Be sure to try the coffee liqueur and the blueberry pancake. A fantastic location, too.

We rode our mountain bikes from Döllach to the Gradental peak (600m elevation gain), then continued on foot. Beautiful scenery with a high moss meadow and numerous waterfalls. Unfortunately, the Nossberger Hut was already closed, even though the host was still there 🙁

Grosskirchheim: Not an easy tour, 840m elevation gain...
Great loop with very beautiful scenery! I didn't give the tour the last star because we didn't go all the way to the summit (Keeskopf 3,081m - I was exhausted 😩). Super beautiful, and after a rainy day with a great view 💪
