The Ritzinger Hut is an absolute must if you're hiking on the Dachstein. It's a cozy, very clean alpine hut with a very friendly owner (Marianne Gruber). Very cozy, far from any stress of civilization. No internet, no TV, no telephone, but lush meadows, absolute peace and quiet. Bikers welcome, whether for a rest or to spend the night. It's advisable to register early, as there aren't many sleeping spaces. E-bike charging isn't possible, but you'll have to organize that beforehand or for afterward.
