Pirkerhütte
- Mountain Cabin
Highlights
Absolute solitude: The Pirkerhütte offers you the perfect opportunity to escape everyday life and enjoy the tranquility of nature in complete seclusion.
Close to nature at an altitude of 1,300 meters: Nestled in a picturesque alpine meadow and surrounded by our organic cattle, you will experience nature up close in an untouched landscape.
Diverse recreational opportunities: Right outside the hut, you'll find numerous hiking and forest trails, and in the nearby area, cozy inns and managed alpine huts invite you to relax.
Relaxation and slowing down: Here you can arrive, unwind, and completely disconnect in the midst of alpine nature—far away from stress and hustle.
About Us
Arrive, come down, and experience nature!
The mountain cabin is located on the Pirkeralm, at around 1.300 meters above sea level, on the edge of a forest next to a large, lush alpine meadow. Here, our own organic cattle graze, enjoying the summer on the alpine pasture just like you. The cabin and the garden in front of it are enclosed by a fence.
On the same Oberwietingberg, Kirchberg, and Breitofneralm, as well as the Weißbergeralm, you’ll find not only countless hiking and forest trails but also a guesthouse (Forellenwirt, run by the Uitz family), a Buschenschank (Liegl family, also known as Irregger), and two managed mountain cabins (Breitofnerhütte and Weißbergerhütte). These can be reached on foot, by bike, or by car.
If you’re looking for more variety, a beautiful terraced swimming area in Klein St. Paul, the natural Längsee lake in the municipality of St. Georgen/Längsee, a showcave in Knappenberg (a good option for bad weather), and a summer toboggan run at Klippitztörl are all accessible by car in under an hour. For a stress-free shopping day, the charming old towns of St. Veit an der Glan or Klagenfurt are also in close proximity.
Here you can slow down and enjoy the absolute solitude - far away from stress and hustle.
We are happy to provide you with fresh milk in a 1L bottle, as well as schnapps 0,2 l bottles (distilled from your choice of apple, plum, pear, and pine, as well as cherry liqueurs) in a 0.3L bottle, all from our own organic production.
Please place your order at least 1 day before arrival by calling: 0650/9239777.
Next to the hut is our alpine meadow, where some of our calves spend the summer. It is truly delightful to observe the animals and share in their curiosity.
Please note that entering the meadow is at your own risk, and we ask that you do not disturb the animals. Dogs are not allowed in the meadow under any circumstances!
