Rohrauerhaus

Good neighbours

Easy cheating: this sanctuary is located in Upper Austria, yet seamlessly blends into the Gesäuse vibe. You hike up here from Ardning Alm or from Hall. The Rohrauerhaus is both: a fantastic place to spend the  night and a fantastic place to fill your belly. Cheers to Upper Austria!

Well situated

A hut that lies at 1,308 meters on the so-called Pyhrgasgatterl in the Ennstal Alps must almost be a hiking and mountaineering hotspot. And that's where the Gesäuse comes into play: A very popular variant is the hike from the Ardning Alm hut over the Arlingsattel to the popular house in the neighboring province.
