Where Good Food Meets Playtime: The Most Beautiful Mountain Huts for Families
What’s better than a hike that ends with Kaiserschmarrn, panoramic views, and a playground? That’s exactly what we love about these mountain huts: they make family happiness feel so effortless. While the kids have fun in the hay, on the slide, or watching the goats, we can sit back with homemade cake, a cold lemonade, or an affogato with a view.
Whether it’s a short stroll with the buggy or a little hike with a backpack and picnic snacks – these 10 huts are our personal highlights for a relaxed family day in the mountains.
