Vöslauerhütte (Naturfreunde)

About Vöslauerhütte (Naturfreunde)

The Vöslauerhütte is a staffed Naturfreunde hut at around 500 metres in the Vienna Woods (Wienerwald) above Bad Vöslau. The hut is on the Mariazellerzwickl in the Augustinerwald; the hosts are Heidi and Friedrich Hruska.

Opening hours

The hut is open all year round; Monday and Thursday are rest days.

• Winter: 9:00 to 16:00, kitchen until 15:00
• Summer: 9:00 to 17:00, kitchen until 15:00, Jause until 16:00

If a public holiday falls on a Monday or Thursday, the hut is open and closes on the following day instead. Card payment is not available, so bring cash.

Getting there

The Naturfreunde list four routes on foot:

• Bad Vöslau – Kurpark – Harzberg
• Kurpark – Helenenhöhe – Klettergarten
• Kurpark – Waldandacht – Pecherhütte
• Steinplatte – Steinbruchgasse

By car you drive via Bad Vöslau and Gainfarn to just below the hut; the car park is around 50 metres lower down. It can also be reached by mountain bike via the Harzberg route and by public transport.

Around the hut

There are 80 seats in two dining rooms. You cannot stay overnight here, and it is not a self-catering hut either. Around ten minutes away stands the Naturfreunde Jubilee Cross with a view of the Pre-Alps and the Schneeberg. Marked paths continue from the hut, for example to the Hoher Lindkogel (around 2¼ hours) or the Peilstein.
