Berggasthaus Edelweisshütte Ladurns

The Edelweisshütte is a mountain lodge with individual rooms, but shared shower and toilet facilities. We had a splendid 5 day stay in August 2020, during the COVID 19 pandemic. Since you need to get up by chair lift and a walk, there are a lot of day guests between 945 and 16:15, but outside those times only the people staying in the 12 or so rooms are up. Somewhere it says that all rooms have a table and chair to leave things, but we were initially allocated a room (no 8) without this, which really was too small for a longer stay by 2 people and a dog. However, staff were flexible and allowed us to change to No3, which was a tad bit larger, and perfect. Staff are superbly hospitable, and really care about their guests. When we did a hike a bit too long for our state of fitness (especially as it rained and thunderstormed for the last 3 out of 6 hours), they went out of their way to have us picked up for free (the Jeep was picking up other guests who had missed the last chairlift, and was told to turn round and get us as well!). We didn't miss dinner... There are a number of good walks starting from the hut, for different levels of fitness, but we also spent a good day just circling the pond, relaxing on the wooden sunloungers and enjoying the sun. Don't miss having one of the fresh trouts for lunch one day!
