Almstüberl Gschwendt

Tyrolean hut on the Reither Kogel family run

The Almstüberl Gschwendt stands at about 954 m in Reith im Alpbachtal, on the family run of the Reitherkogelbahn. It is a relaxed mid-slope stop rather than a hut high on the mountain: anyone skiing down with children will pass it naturally. Sources also mention it as a regular stop on night-skiing evenings.

The cooking is traditional Tyrolean. Visitors single out the home-made Kaiserschmarrn and the cheese fondue. The hut is also a partner in the Alpbachtal Hüttenjause, a regional scheme for huts serving the same traditional snack platter. For families from Niederau it makes a pleasant outing, combining a drive along the valley with the lift and the family run.
