Kaltenberg Hütte | St. Christoph-Klostertal

Public transport takes you from Klösterle am Arlberg to St. Christoph am Arlberg. The start of the Berggeistweg is near the church in St. Christoph and leads from here via the Albonagrat to the Kaltenberg Hütte. Enjoy sensational views towards Patteriol in the Verwall during the hike. The Kaltenberg Hütte is situated at an altitude of 2,089 metres in an airy, open balcony location high above the rear Klostertal valley, on the northern slope of the Kaltenberg. Thanks to its exposed location, it offers beautiful views of the Klostertal valley and the Flexen Pass as well as the opposite peaks of the Lechquellen and Verwall mountains. At the Kaltenberg Hütte you can savour culinary delights and enjoy the view. The descent takes you back to St. Christoph am Arlberg via the Paul Bantlin Trail or via various other route options to Stuben am Arlberg or Langen am Arlberg.
