Welcome to our youth guesthouse Gosauschmied!
Enjoy your holiday in our house, where even Emperor Franz Josef spent his holidays. We offer twin rooms with shower, toilet and TV and multi-bed rooms with bunk beds, shower and toilet.
Our youth guesthouse is suitable for school ski weeks, school country weeks, music seminars, but also for private guests or families who prefer simple, low-priced but clean accommodation.
In summer we are the perfect starting point for many hikes and mountain bike tours. The via ferrata is only a few minutes walk away.
In winter we are the perfect starting point for winter activities. We are only a few minutes away from the popular skiing area Dachstein West. The bus stop for the free ski bus is in the immediate vicinity. The cross-country ski trail is located behind our hotel, which is opposite our youth guesthouse.
We are looking forward to your visit!
