Chalet magic for a real time-out
Enjoy a summer holiday like in the good old days
You almost have the feeling that this quaint mountain chalet came straight out of a sentimental regional film. Here in Mittersill, in the heart of the Upper Tauern National Park, you‘ll experience a traditional summer in the alpine pastures.
Spend your nicest time of the year surrounded by lush alpine pastures and beautiful forests. You’ll be woken in the mornings by the grazing livestock as they curiously sniff the area around the garden fence. Bring enough time to fully enjoy the here and now. Your freshly brewed coffee from the wood-burning stove tastes especially good. There is a small herb garden in the garden to refine your delicious cottage dishes. The chalet offers pure nature and also has no running water. Crystal-clear spring water babbles in the traditional well in front of the property and will awaken you from your deep sleep with a surge and a “woohoo”. Anti-aging effect included!
What can you experience in summer here?
Nothing. You don‘t have to experience anything here. But you can experience a great deal. Be active, go hiking and biking – after all, you’re in a national park and attractions such as the Krimml Waterfalls, Großglockner High Alpine Road, national park centre, natural swimming lakes etc. are waiting to be discovered.
But what about simply arriving and taking in the surroundings, landscape and your holiday home. Your chalet is over 80 years old and used to be a feeding stall. The previous owners were glass artists. When sunlight shines through the colourful windows, it awakens a vibrant play of colours. The “chalet” experience is at the forefront here:
- Cooking on a traditional regional oven that has to be heated up in advance.
- Your morning and evening bathroom routine takes place by the well and with quaint washbasins. The well can also be used for cooling your drinks and well-packaged food items.
- The “modern” outhouse in a separate hut.
- A romantic, candle-lit atmosphere in the evening.
- The cosy lounge area with an open fireplace – you can even grill food inside here.
The best way to experience the unique views of the Upper Tauern, with the Pihapper in a prominent position, is while enjoying a glass of wine after a lengthy hike. About 500 m away on foot, an idyllic little stream ripples. Children love to build dams here and send little boats made of paper or wood down into the valley. The chalet owners recommend the challenging hikes on the Geißstein, the highest grass mountain in the Kitzbühel Alps with a height of 2,363 m, the Rinnkogel or the tour to the Birglhütte that serves food.
Tip: The area around your chalet is a true paradise for mushrooms and blueberries! Almliesl has a delicious recipe for a chanterelle goulash or “blueberry pockets”. A true delight! To make your goulash in the chalet, it’s best to prepare the dumplings at home before you leave.
