Overview
Linzer Haus (also written Linzerhaus) is a mountain hut of the Austrian Alpine Club (Österreichischer Alpenverein), specifically of its Linz section, located on the Wurzeralm at 1,371 metres above sea level at the eastern foot of the Warscheneck in Upper Austria. It stands at the south-western edge of the Teichlboden near a small lake used for ski slope snowmaking, and is an important base along the Northern Alps long-distance hiking trail. The hut was opened in 1932 and is reached easily from the Wurzeralm cable car's mountain station (about 10 minutes on foot), from the valley station (about 1½ hours), from Spital am Pyhrn (about 3 hours) or from the Pyhrn Pass (about 2 hours). It serves as a starting point for tours to the Warscheneck, Rote Wand, Stubwieswipfel, Ramesch and Toter Mann, and for hut-to-hut transitions to the Liezener Hütte, Dümlerhütte, Zellerhütte and Hochmölbinghütte. The official website presents the hut under the name Linzerhaus Wurzeralm and lists the operating family as Familie Skreinig, with contact details in Spital am Pyhrn. The site offers sections for accommodation, photos, dining, celebrations, winter and summer/autumn, and facilities. The hut is a commercial hospitality and accommodation offering within the Alpine Club's network, rather than a standalone corporation.
History
Linzer Haus was opened in 1932 as a hut of the Linz section of the Austrian Alpine Club (Österreichischer Alpenverein). It was built on the Wurzeralm at 1,371 metres above sea level, at the eastern foot of the Warscheneck in Upper Austria, at the south-western edge of the Teichlboden near a small lake. The hut became an important base along the Northern Alps long-distance hiking trail and a staging point for tours in the Totes Gebirge. The official website, dated 2013, presents the hut as Linzerhaus Wurzeralm and identifies the operating family as Familie Skreinig, based in Spital am Pyhrn. The site provides information on accommodation, photos, dining, celebrations, winter and summer/autumn seasons, and facilities. The hut is supplied by road and by the Wurzeralm funicular/cable car. Nearby are the highest bogs of the Northern Alps, the upper and lower Filzmoos.
