Alpine pond hut
The Almteichhütte is located a few minutes from the hotel and offers a number of advantages with its unrivalled location by a private pond.
If guests are staying at the hotel, we can organise private parties for up to 25 people in our new hut.
It is ideal for a cosy get-together with a barbecue or Heurigen buffet.
Your group excursion to the Waldviertel!
From the variety of beers to Waldviertel specialities
Even over 100 years ago, summer holidaymakers loved to stroll up to the Schwarz Alm – a small alpine hut surrounded by a large meadow. It’s no different today. The incomparably peaceful location in the large forest clearing and the Waldviertel hospitality with its culinary and regional specialities make the Schwarz Alm a popular excursion destination for groups.

Kitchen philosophy
How do we see our kitchen line? Well – it is deliberately regional and authentically Waldviertel. We mainly draw from the diverse delicatessen “Waldviertel”. Poppy, carp, potatoes, cereals, game, high-quality meat and the variety of garden and wild herbs are our typical basic products. And we are grateful and very proud to have this wealth on our doorstep.
But for all his attachment to his homeland, the Waldviertler is also an innovative, creative, inventive and, above all, curious person who likes to keep his nose to the wind and try out new things. However, he never forgets his uncomplicated nature and down-to-earth attitude. This is also reflected in the creativity of our dishes – allowing new things and simply trying them out.
The award-winning beers from the Zwettl private brewery harmonise perfectly with the New Waldviertel Cuisine. “Cooking with and to beer” – this is the title under which many creative dishes have been created over the years, which go perfectly with Original, Pils, Zwickl, organic beer & Co.
We have listed our range of beers for you in a separate beer list and we source all of our wines from Austria. The fruit juices from farm production come from the Thayatal and the great distillates directly from the Waldviertel and Austria.
We wish you bon appétit!
