Description

Take the Giggijochbahn directly from Sölden or the new gondola from Hochsölden, approx. 1 hour ascent time to the hut.

You can also take the glacier bus to the Rettenbachalm or to the Rettenbach glacier and hike from there to the Rotkoglhütte.

Enjoy the view on the surrounding peaks, especially on Tyrol's highest mountain, the Wildspitze (3,774 m), or dare to take a tour on top of the Rotkogel (2,948 m) or the Schwarzkogel (3,016 m).

With almost 1.5 hours of ascent time, it could be described as the “easiest” 3,000-meter peak in Sölden. Past the idyllic Schwarzsee, the tour is sure to be an experience for everyone.

At the Rotkoglhütte our little visitors are in good hands on the playground with giant climbing shoes, slides, sandpit, etc. and who can say that they jumped on a trampoline at 2,666 m?

For not so nice weather we have prepared toys in our rooms. In the immediate surrounding of the hut is the “Maria Schnee” chapel, which is open to all visitors.
