Travelling alone – briefly answered
Which huts suit solo travellers?
Small huts or apartments for one to two people, a clear arrival route, shopping nearby and a location that suits your mountain experience.
Do I automatically pay more on my own?
Not necessarily. Many prices apply per hut, not per person – small houses usually make more sense for solo travellers than large group accommodations.
Secluded or near the farm for the first trip?
For the first solo holiday, farm proximity or a short access road is usually more comfortable. Later you can choose more remote huts.
Where do I find tips for preparation?
In the solo guide: safety, arrival without a car, costs and the packing list for solo travellers – all in detail in one place.

Which huts are especially suitable for solo travellers?
Small, cosy huts for 1–2 people – many of them in quiet locations or entirely secluded. We have been to every hut ourselves and tell you honestly which one suits you.
Is a hut holiday alone in the mountains safe?
Yes. Our huts lie in easily reachable regions, we know every host personally and you can reach us directly before and during your holiday – no call centre.
Do I pay more as a solo traveller?
You pay the price of the hut per night – with our small huts it is fair even for one person. You see the from-price directly with each accommodation.
How do I book as a solo traveller?
You send your non-binding enquiry directly to us at urlaubshuetten.com – we personally take care of everything else, from advice to booking.
