The blue lagoon at Sulzenauhütte

Neustift im Stubaital, Austria

While most people connect summer with beaches and sand and sunsets, I don’t. Not anymore at least. Ever since I moved to Austria, summer is the perfect season to go hiking and really enjoy nature. Or a quick dip in a blue lagoon at 2,360m?

This is also the vlog I filmed and edited from that day. I look like quite the chump actually, still uncomfortable in front of the camera, still not knowing if I should film video or shoot photos. However, I really like my new pocket / compact camera – the Canon G7x. Apparently everybody’s using it on YouTube so I guess it’s good. Hope you enjoy the video.

The Sulzenau hut in Neustift in the Stubai Valley in the Tyrol is an ideal hiking- and overnight destination in the Stubai Alps. The hut can be reached from the valley (2 hours) such as along the Stubai High Trail (3 hours) or from the middle station of the Stubai Glacier cable car (2,5 hours) in quite comfortable time. All starting points are accessible with bus line Stubaital (ST) from Innsbruck main railway station departing every half hour.

The Sulzenau hut oversees majestically on 2191m above sea level the valley below from the edge of the cliffs surrounding the alpine pastures of Sulzenaualm. It has been built amongst fields of mountain pines, pastures and crystal clear mountain lakes in 1926. Since 2008 the Sulzenau hut is property of Section Leipzig of the German Alpine Club (DAV).
