Brandenburger Haus, Mountain hut in Kaunertal, Austria.
The Brandenburger Haus stands at 3,277 meters elevation, positioned above the Gepatschferner glacier with views extending across the Tyrolean mountain ranges.
The German Alpine Club Brandenburg Division constructed this mountain refuge between 1904 and 1909, establishing it as a primary shelter for mountaineers in the region.
The mountain hut functions as an international gathering point where mountaineers from different countries connect while sharing their Alpine experiences and knowledge.
Access to the hut requires a six to eight hour hike from Kaunertal Valley or Ötztal Valley, and visitors must join a rope team or hire a mountain guide.
The facility receives eleven tonnes of supplies annually by helicopter, including provisions for its restaurant that previously served under a Michelin-starred chef.
