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.

September 7, 2025, 🇦🇹 vom Gradental zur Adolf Nossberger Hütte (Rundweg)

Even though the hut was closed today, the hike is definitely worth it. 👍 But I was also a bit disappointed to meet the supposedly very grumpy hut warden. Just read the reviews on Google. 🤣

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 💪 The 5.5 km drive (over gravel) to the parking lot was also nice ✌️
