The Innsbrucker Hut (German: Innsbrucker Hütte) is a mountain hut in the Stubai Alps at an altitude of 2,369 metres (7,772 ft) in the Gschnitz Valley, not far from the Pinnisjoch.[2] It is managed by the Innsbruck Tourist Club section of the Austrian Alpine Club. The Innsbrucker Hütte is below the Habicht on the Stubai Hohenweg[3] and is often visited.
Access[edit]
The quickest route to the hut from the Gschnitz Valley is from the car park behind Gasthof Feuerstein (at 1,281 metres (4,203 ft)); this route takes about three hours and climbs over 1,000 metres (3,300 ft).[4] An alternate route from Neder in the Stubai Valley (at 970 metres (3,180 ft)) through the Pinnis Valley takes approximately 4–5 hours[4] and passes four former Alpine pastures, the Herzebenalm, Issenangeralm, Pinnisalm and Karalm. It is possible to take a taxi as far as the Karalm (at 1,747 metres (5,732 ft)).
