FAQs: ‘Escape’ – Renting an alpine hut
Is firewood provided in the huts and chalets, or is it included?
If a fireplace, wood-burning barbecue, fire pit or wood-burning stove is mentioned in the listing for an alpine hut, mountain hut or chalet, firewood is provided. In a few alpine huts or romantic mountain huts, a small fee is charged for this – in which case, you’ll find details in our listing.
What should I bear in mind for an Almliesl mountain holiday in a rustic, secluded hut?
Among other things, we recommend bringing food boxes, as well as a small first-aid kit, torches, binoculars, hiking maps, sturdy hiking boots, UV protection, headwear, a rucksack, hiking poles and warm clothing and waterproofs even in summer. It quickly gets cold in the mountains! Also remember charging cables & power banks. Get tips for your first hut holiday here.
How do I store food whilst on holiday in a remote mountain hut to protect it as effectively as possible from animals?
We recommend storing open food in boxes or plastic containers that seal tightly. If there is no fridge in the rustic alpine hut or secluded mountain hut, there are alternatives, such as a cool cellar or cool boxes. Please check the accommodation description for detailed information, or feel free to contact the Almliesl team.
Where can I keep my food cool during my holiday in a mountain hut if there’s no fridge?
A spring trough or an earth cellar are ideal for keeping fresh food cool in well-sealed containers. Almliesl guests also like to take a cool box with them on their mountain hut holiday, for example for dairy products.
Are there any tips for a holiday in a remote mountain hut with no electricity?
Most Almliesl huts have a reliable electricity supply, which makes things a lot easier. However, if a hut doesn’t have a regular electricity supply, you’ll find this mentioned in the listing. These huts are powered by gas, a generator or solar panels. By choosing a holiday cabin like this, you decide for yourself how close you want to be to nature. In this case, we recommend bringing a lighter, candles and a torch. No electricity – what now? – Find out more here.
Are all Almliesl huts and holiday homes accessible by car?
No, not all of our huts are accessible by car. Occasionally, you can only reach a remote hut on foot, or by snowshoes or touring skis in winter. However, you’ll always find information on how to get there in our listings and travel details.
Is there mobile phone reception at every Almliesl hut?
Unfortunately, not every hut has good mobile phone reception. However, you can always find information on this in the relevant hut descriptions. In the mountains, the quality of the mobile network can vary and depends heavily on the network provider. We’d be happy to check with the hut owner on your behalf to be absolutely sure.
