We chose the Dortmunder Hütte because there are rooms with a shower and toilet. We booked half board. However, we were happy that we had enough energy-rich food with us. The dinner and breakfast were horrible. The price-performance ratio was underground. There are plenty of better alternatives in the area. For the price (€360) for two people and two days, we could have booked a great hotel. The service was subpar, the dishes were dirty. The beer was far too expensive for the road connection (€5.50). Parking spaces are directly in front of the hut. Guests often come without reservations. Overall, the hut is not recommended.

Can't follow the recommendations. Stayed here overnight to get an early start in the morning. There was no peace at night and you could hear the neighbors from the double rooms. The only positive thing was the showers in the double rooms. But due to the lack of curtains in the bathroom, the hotel opposite has a great view. The overnight prices and costs for half board (45 euros) were totally exorbitant. We left the food there. For us the meals tasted like ready meals. The vegetables were totally watery. The breakfast was also of poor quality. Refills were made from supermarket bags. Glasses and cups were dirty. Luckily we had brought enough cereals and energy supplies with us. Charging €5.50 for a wheat beer is totally excessive. Of course we are at an altitude of 1900 meters, but the surrounding accommodations do a better job. Especially since everything is connected to a main road. The Dortmunder Hütte was perfect as a starting point for hikes. The view of the mountains is more beautiful than here. There is a lot of construction going on. The power plant below the reservoirs is still under construction.

Majestic peaks. Breathtaking landscapes. With our 70 years of age, we appreciated these moments of communion with the mountains and nature. In short, still beautiful discoveries where all the ingredients were gathered to make it an unforgettable hike.

For experienced hikers, the ascent to Reither Spitze Summit is a challenging climb requiring sure-footedness and offers a gigantic panorama.

Additionally, the circular route encompassing Rietzer Grießkogel (2884 m) and Hocheder (2796 m) in the northern Sellrain mountains offers a significant challenge.
