A versatile tourism property full of charm and great potential. The complex comprises three interconnected areas: a rustic lodge with a restaurant (approx. 90 seats) and a cozy bar, several traditional “hut-style” guest rooms (8 multi-bed and double rooms) including a reception area, and the “Familienalm” with 12 rustic family suites (approx. 45 m² each), accommodating up to 3 children or 4 adults.
A small, inviting sauna area offers relaxation, and the attic has already been prepared for conversion into an exclusive penthouse apartment for the operator. The ensemble is completed by a separate après-ski restaurant – the “Klausuralm” – offering up to 120 seats and a dedicated seminar room, ideal for events and conferences.
In summer, the Hochberghaus is easily accessible via the paved mountain road “Farrenau,” including a barbecue forest area with a playground. In winter, it is located directly on the slopes of the Almtal Bergbahnen Kasberg, with access by snowmobile via the Kasberg lifts.
The established “Waldness” tourism concept is already in place, well received, and can be continued seamlessly.
A rare opportunity for investors, hosts, or alpine visionaries seeking a place with heart, history, and future prospects.

Grünau im Almtal is located in southern Upper Austria, in the district of Gmunden, nestled within the impressive natural scenery of the Almtal valley in the Salzkammergut region. The village sits at an elevation of 528 meters and has a population of around 2,036 residents.
Thanks to its central position in the Salzkammergut and its inclusion in the popular tourism region Traunsee-Almtal, Grünau benefits from excellent accessibility. Its location between regional urban centers makes it attractive for both day trips and longer holidays. Nearby lakes such as Traunsee, Wolfgangsee, and Hallstätter See are among the most visited destinations in the area.
Grünau itself offers a peaceful, nature-oriented, and family-friendly environment. The village center provides all essential infrastructure: grocery stores, banks, a pharmacy, doctors, a kindergarten, primary and secondary schools. Local craftsmen, restaurants, and small businesses shape the charm of this traditional community. The Almtalbahn railway connects Grünau directly to Wels and the wider Austrian rail network.
Grünau records approximately 120,000 overnight stays per year (based on 2022/2023 regional data), with both summer and winter tourism playing a significant role. The nearby Kasberg ski area is especially family-friendly, offering 21 kilometers of slopes, modern lifts, a snow park, and multiple ski schools. Winter hiking trails and toboggan runs complement the snowy activities.
In summer, Grünau transforms into a hiking and nature paradise. Popular destinations include the Almsee, the Ödseen lakes, and the Hetzau Valley. The Großer Priel (2,515 m), the highest peak of the Totes Gebirge range, draws alpine enthusiasts from all around.
Numerous hiking and cycling trails, educational nature paths, and proximity to national and nature parks provide relaxation and recreation for the entire family. The Cumberland Wildlife Park in Grünau is a favorite among visitors of all ages.
