It's the tops. The top of the Asitz.
Rustic, cosy, cool – there's nowhere quite like the Alte Schmiede on the Asitz.
Invigorating fresh air – amazing views. Less than 40 metres from the top station of the Asitzbahn and Steinbergbahn cable cars, the AlteSchmiede is perched up at 1760 m. In winter, it's one of the best ski huts in Austria. In summer it's a very special mountain restaurant. Experience the mountain from its most enjoyable side here, all year round.
A remarkable mountain inn with a charm all of its own
The place to relax in winter on the mountain
Ever since it opened in the year 2000, the Alte Schmiede has been the perfect place to meet up on the mountain. In winter, it's an award-winning mountain restaurant, somewhere to treat yourself to a break while skiing. In summer, it's an out-of-the-ordinary venue for culture-vultures. From the legendary "Sound tracks on the Asitz" event to folk music and House Grooves – the range of live music is second to none for variety.
The décor in the rooms is also fascinating in its diversity - after all, the AlteSchmiede offers a home to anything that deserves to be preserved. It takes its name from a mighty and ancient forging hammer from the Kaiserbachtal in Tirol. Every room clearly bears the signature of Sepp Altenberger jun. A keen collector of traditional artefacts, he has lovingly transformed the AlteSchmiede into a museum-restaurant. Traditions and local crafts are represented by thousands of museum exhibits in 8 rooms. They make for a great atmosphere embracing the whole spectrum from rustic to stylish. It's the ideal setting for relaxing or partying. It's best to take the virtual tour and see for yourself.
