A beautiful and "easy-to-reach" hike to the Galsterbergalmhütte!
A leisurely hike with wonderful views at 1800 m above sea level. A special feature are the marmots, which visibly feel at home on the alpine pasture!

More information
From the village of Pruggern, the road leads along the Pruggererbergweg to the Galsterberg valley station. Please do not park here, but continue along the serpentines. The path soon turns into a forest path, where you follow the forest road up to the left, which is used as a toboggan run in winter. After approx. 10 minutes, you will reach the Bottinghaus parking lot and the starting point of the hike.
From Bottinghaus, take the road up to the right and after a few minutes you will reach a crossroad where you follow the valley descent to the left to the reservoir. From there, the trail continues up the left-hand valley descent. Once you reach the top of the path, you can already see the hut and you have reached your destination. Once you arrive at the Galsterbergalmhütte, the sun terrace with culinary delights and the marmots that live there are already waiting for you! The way down leads via a forest and root path, which is located at the start of the valley descent behind the Galsterbergalmhütte.
This hike is especially recommendable during the time of the alpine roses bloom.
Unfortunately, there is no public transportation to Bottinghaus.
