Erzherzog Johann Hütte

The highest beds in Austria to sleep, the highest Restaurant to eat and the highest place to drink Skiwasser, Beer or Schnaps.
Wonderful managed by Toni and his Team in a very challenging environment.
The access is a nice climb and or a long hike, and you can enjoy incredible views all around.

The cabin exceeded my expectations. Comfortable beds, clean, two blankets for each person. You need to make reservations ahead as in season they tend to be fully booked. Breakfast was excellent, a buffet with many options and as much as you need to eat and coffee/tea. Water is 2.5 eur for 1.5 l. The rest of the prices are also ok for a mountain cabin (this means higher than in the cities).

Still the best resting place to reach Grossglockner. The staff is fast and helpful, rooms are also comfortable. The price is normal, same as the other huttes over 3000m. I like this place 🙂

You need proper equipment to get here. Personally the highest point I ever been to in my life (08.2023). Wifi is available.

This was one of the best experience i everything had on cabin. In 3500 m above the sea level you can still doing Beer, eat great food and stay a night in warm bed. It is with its position a great place to stay for night or just a warm meal before going up to GG.

For its height – wonderful.
Warm sleeping and dining rooms, delicious food, some souvenirs for sale. No shower, no water in fact (just bottled drinking water and melted for soups and other dishes), but there's WC. You should leave your equipment in a big room near the entrance, you should also change your boots (here you can find their own collection of slippers – you can put it on), there are some hangers for coats and equipment outside the special equipment room.
Finally, here lives a nice dog who meets the tourists.

I used winter room for my winter summit at 26/03/2022. Thera are 4 beds and also blankets. There is also toilet.

This hut is a great place to stay, a bit expensive because of the location.
The food is very good and comes in good portions. The breakfast is a little simple but it's enough. you can get a extra cup of coffee or extra diner.

The staffmembers were very kind with us and the dishes were very good with affordable prices despite of the fact that this house is the highest in Austria for tourists. And There was such a nice view! Thank you for everything!

Refuge is above 3400m so it is the highest place where you can sleep before climbing Grossglockner summit. Many rooms, good kitchen. You can pay only by cash. There are no showers, no water!

Highest hut in Austria. No tap water. But good beer and accomodation with awesome mountain atmosphere.

Beautiful place. They ask 2,50 to fill up your water bottle, so you know...

Concerning the view I think it will be difficult to find better in Austria.

Nice alpine hut, with friendly stuff. Amazing sunrise

Absolutely amazing view on the Großglockner
