Paws up for a vacation full of adventure!

Fresh, clear air and surrounded by nature. Together, you set off on adventures across fields, between meadows and forests. Side by side, you climb mountains, hike through valleys and to refreshing lakes.

In winter, the program includes diving into deep snow, sledding, and long snowshoe hikes. As a reward, you'll enjoy a hearty treat in the warm living room of your mountain hut. What more could a dog's heart desire?

Well informed on holiday in a cabin with a dog

The Almliesl cabin owners & farmers love animals! They welcome your furry companion with open arms and want to provide you with a lovely break in their property. To avoid any surprises or uncertainties on site, we would like to present a few REQUESTS directly from the accommodation owners:

🐕‍🦺

PLEASE...

Take the leash requirement seriously! Alpine pastures, meadows, and forests are not a free-running zone. This also applies around your cabin. In addition to hikers, children, grazing livestock & wild animals, you may also encounter hunters and foresters. Free-running dogs are strictly prohibited.

💩

PLEASE...

Many dogs make many “piles”. Unfortunately, the Almliesl cabin owners have noticed that their guests are reluctant to pick up the “piles”. For the cows, the “topping” on their wonderful pastures & meadows is inedible. And what many do not know: dog faeces can cause miscarriages in grazing animals! Thank you for not forgetting the “bag for the poop”.

🛏️

PLEASE...

Sometimes the love for dogs goes so far that even the bed is shared. Dear dog people, the house & cabin owners kindly ask you not to let the animals jump on the bed. Dirty paws, insects, or even ticks can be carried from the forest and meadow into the bed, resulting in a significant additional cleaning effort.

Dog vacations with heart and mind

Dog lovers know that their furry friends particularly enjoy running around in the countryside. To ensure an unspoiled vacation with your dog, it is important to remember that dogs must be kept on a leash. Some Almliesl huts are fenced in, but this does not prevent freedom-loving dogs from running away. Farm animals, grazing livestock, and wildlife must not be disturbed by dogs running free.

Many Almliesl mountain huts and vacation homes welcome guests with furry friends. The Almliesl team will be happy to advise you so your four-legged friend can enjoy your vacation to the fullest. Look for the dog symbol when searching for vacation accommodations. This makes renting a mountain hut with your dog especially easy.Discover accommodations in the

Tip: The alpine pasture is not a petting zoo.

Dog owners know that once their faithful companions pick up a scent, they tend to ignore calls, whistles, and warnings. Discovering a stray dog roaming around in the woods can have serious consequences. Information on how to behave when encountering grazing animals can be found HERE.
