The National Park Festival in Mallnitz is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

Ceremony with the tapping of the beer barrel at 1:00 PM, live music “Just the 3 of us”

For the anniversary festival, visitors can once again expect a varied program with live music, culinary delights, crafts, and traditional customs – such as the performances of the Schuhplattler groups “Die Ankogler”, “Die Göriacher” and the “Hüttenkogler” from Bad Gastein.

A special highlight again this year is the competition “Traditionskapazunder”, where traditional Schuhplatteln, skill, and humor are required. Guests are also welcome to participate.

The Schwussnerhütte opens for summer 2026 – A must-visit in the Seebachtal

19 May, 20261 June, 2026in Autumn, Food and Drinks, Hiking Tours, Spring, Summer by Florian Hohenberger

Just in time for the start of summer, the popular Schwussnerhütte in the Seebach Valley reopened its doors today. For many guests of Apartments Hohenberger and Mallnitz-visitors, it is a real focal point of their summer retreat in Mallnitz – a destination that combines pleasure hiking in the Hohe Tauern National Park and hut culture.

Open: Daily in July, August, and September

As you can see from the image above, the Schwussnerhütte will be open daily during the peak season in July, August, and September 2026. It is located in the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park, nestled in the impressive scenery of the Seebachtal valley.

With regional delicacies, homemade pastries (our tip: blueberry sweet omelet) and an airy terrace, the Schwussnerhütte is the perfect place to eat, take a breath and enjoy.

Why the Seebach Valley is always worth a trip

Anyone who visits the Schwussnerhütte also experiences the impressive Seebach Valley, which, with the Stappitzer See, its wild beauty, the Seebach, the waterfalls and veil falls and the towering 3,000-meter peaks on the sides, is one of the most popular nature experiences around Mallnitz that can be enjoyed as a starting point.

Read more in our blog about the round through the valley: Seebach Valley Round

Whether as a refreshing morning walk, an extended day tour or an afternoon excursion with children – the Seebach Valley and the Schwussnerhütte are simply part of summer in Mallnitz.

What Our Guests Say

We spent 9 days in this clean and comfortable accommodation with a great view. Highly recommended for those seeking a quiet place and excellent hiking opportunities. Florian gave us many useful hiking tips and was very helpful throughout this beautiful vacation in Mallnitz. Many thanks!

Laszlo

We spent a week in the apartments during our 2022 vacation. The apartments are renovated, clean, and in a cool local style. Great location, off the beaten path and in a really quiet place. Close to hiking trails, the swimming pool, and the local history museum. The owner made sure we had plenty to do. He gave us a lot of useful information about local events and attractions. We were really well taken care of. It’s also a good option to take the train to Bad Gastein to visit the thermal baths. A wonderful place! Additionally, there’s a GoPass system for skiers, so you can expect discounts.

Ewa

We really enjoyed our stay here. The apartment is modern, cozy, and excellently equipped. Our host Florian took great care of us and always had helpful (excursion) tips ready. We can easily imagine coming back again soon.

Floral Splendor along the Roman Road

22 June, 20253 April, 2026in Cycling, Spring, Summer, Workation by Florian Hohenberger

The longest night of the year begins with light. For the summer solstice, I was on the Jamnigalm to capture the awakening floral splendor of the alpine meadows in that special light that lasts only a few minutes: the blue hour.

As the sun slowly disappeared behind the Geissl, it changed – gentle, cool, and clear – and settled like a veil over the meadows and the idyllic alpine hut.

A moment that lasts

Between day and night, between spring and summer, between expansion and retreat – the photo series for the summer solstice reminds us how quiet and powerful nature can be.

And how cyclically everything repeats itself.

Experience even more magic of nature: Photo walk in the Seebachtal

Those who want to delve deeper into the world of nature photography in the Hohe Tauern National Park should not miss the photo walk “Natural Treasures of the Seebachtal”. Together with a ranger from the national park administration, participants discover the most beautiful light moments, perspectives and natural details – perfect for all who, like us, want to capture the beauty of the moment.
