Dachstein / Schladming Tauern

When do 2027 reservations open

• hut-reservation.org (25 huts here): No single date. Each hut opens the coming season for booking when it chooses, which the DAV puts as early as December and sometimes not until March; most reservations are made between mid-February and late April. As a rule beds can be reserved until 18:00 on the evening before arrival. Cancelled places go back on the calendar, often only a few days before the date. Checked against the portal on 27 August 2026.
• Hütten Holiday (2 huts here): The platform publishes no opening date. Each hut opens its own booking calendar on the platform when it chooses, and only the current season is ever loaded - a hut that has shut for the year shows no dates at all rather than an empty calendar. A deposit is taken at booking and is refunded as account credit, or on request as money, when you cancel in time. There is no common cancellation deadline: each hut warden sets their own and it is stated on that hut's page, which the platform's FAQ says explicitly. A service fee covering payment costs is never refunded, cancellation or not. When a hut is full you can join a waiting list, but everyone on it is emailed at once, so a place is not guaranteed. Checked 7 September 2026. The portal itself publishes no opening date, so treat the timing as unconfirmed.

Once a portal opens, the Dachstein / Schladming Tauern map in HutScanner will show which of these huts still have beds on consecutive nights, so you can check a chain before you book on the portal.
