Nestled between rolling hills, sparkling forests, and the majestic Alps lies the Wörthersee. In summer, it's turquoise blue and up to 28 degrees warm, in autumn a sea of colors of gold and red, and in winter an enchanting paradise full of tranquility, magic, and winter splendor.

The Koschutahaus on the Mrzli-Log-Alm (Karawanken) is not only a fully staffed mountain refuge, but also the mountaineering and training center of the Austrian Alpine Club (Naturfreunde Kärnten) and a day trip destination on the "Alpine Cultural Trail." The alpine hut enjoys sunny views beneath the steep limestone cliffs of the Koschuta. It is a popular starting point for hikes or challenging mountain and climbing tours. All guests are treated to lovingly prepared home-style cooking from Carinthian cuisine! The best local delicacies, excellent drinks, and a great atmosphere are all part of the experience here. Everything we ate was excellent and plentiful. The hut owner is very friendly and accommodating. We'll be back! Next time, though, with a sled 😉. The Koschutahaus can be reached via the groomed trail using snowshoes, touring skis, or hiking boots. Hut owner Michi ensures perfect conditions with his small snow groomer!

At Linsendorf begins the absolute south of Austria – with the warmest bathing lakes in Europe, with the gentle Saualpe and the mystical Karawanken. 😍
