It’s that moment at sunrise, when you sip your coffee outside the Johannishütte, and the first light hits the mighty Großvenediger. The air is crisp, your legs still waking up, and you realize you’re walking one of the most peaceful high routes in Austria. No road noise, no crowds—just gentle alpine beauty and a string of authentic mountain huts waiting to host you.
The Venediger Höhenweg is a 4-day hut-to-hut adventure in the heart of Hohe Tauern National Park, ideal for beginners and casual hikers. You’ll hike from Rosstocker-Hütte to Johannishütte, follow well-marked trails to Eisseehütte, and finish in the peaceful Virgental. The route avoids technical sections and is perfect for those looking to experience the Alps without steep climbs or difficult terrain.

Accommodation
During your Venediger Höhenweg, you will spend your nights in mountain huts. In the mountain huts we normally only book dormitories, but we can look into private rooms on request. If the private rooms are fully booked or not available in the hut, we automatically book a bed in dormitories for you. Please note that private rooms are more expensive and there will be an additional charge for this.
