We in the Pinzgau are proud of our own cuisine, we have funny names for traditional home cooking, which only exists in this region. But the range of restaurants, inns and alpine huts provides for plenty of enjoyment for every taste. We have put together some of our recommendations here.
Priesteregg Huwi’s Alm
Huwi’s Alm is the place to eat when it comes to cosy hut culture, hearty culinary delights and alpine chic. Mingle with the guests at the chalet – the Hut food and Ripperl come highly recommended – make sure to book and order in advance!
In summer, the Pinzgau Mountains offer a great backdrop with stunning views.

During the winter, there is night tobogganing twice a week on the Asitz, beforehand, make sure to swing by “the smithy” and feast!
