Hochalm History

In 1957, the 3 Krings brothers make a modest start to developing an area of alpine pastures between the Grünwaldsee and the Seekarhaus through the addition of ski lifts. We are a large family business made up of 3 families. Through hard work, a willingness to take risks and open-mindedness, the fortunes of the Krings company were quickly on the ascendency. We are incredibly grateful and proud of our parents, aunts and uncles.

Built in 1980 as a small cafe (seating about 50 guests) at the foot of the Seekarspitz. To this point, we have invested in 4 major remodeling projects and countless smaller ones for the benefit of our guests.
