Enjoyable hiking at the foot of the Bischofsmütze

This tour is not just about the culinary delights in the huts - there is also a lot to discover for the eyes: a variety of orchids - the so-called "queens".

You will experience the "bride-seeking of the queens", the orchids that have put on their best dress for you, on this tour in the picturesque mountain village of Filzmoos. On your way from the Aualm via the Sulzkaralm and Hofpürglhütte to the Hofalmen, you will discover the flowers in all their glory. Guarded by the mighty Bischofsmütze, a true floral splendor blooms here that will inspire you! The tour begins with a gentle start: an easy path leads you via the Aualm to the Sulzkaralm. Here you can treat yourself to a first rest - the alpine pasture is known for its homemade "Kasjaus'n".

Then it gets a little steeper until you reach the Austriaweg. It now leads you at a constant height past the Bischofsmütze to the Hofpürglhütte. After a long break, the route continues downhill from there via the Wastl-Lackner-Steig to the Hofalmen.

Kirchgasshütte on the Aualm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Fantastically situated alpine pasture below the Bischhofsmütze. The Kasjause with cheese from our own production, the freshly made farmer's donuts and a sour milk with cranberries are highly recommended.

Hofpürgl Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Hofpürglhütte is picturesquely situated in the middle of the Dachstein massif and at the foot of the Great Bishop's Hat. Because of the numerous climbing routes in the surrounding rock walls, hikers, mountaineers and rock climbers meet at the hut. Although the hut is quite large with 29 beds and 71 places in the dormitory, you should reserve your accommodation in advance.
