Welcome to the Quellhütte .... the holiday home on the Salza

The apartments "Dachbod'n" and "Parterre" (from 70m² to 150m²) of the Quellhütte Weichselboden, built around 1900, are located in the Mariazell region, directly in the source protection area of the Vienna Hochquell water pipeline and halfway between Mariazell and Wildalpen. Book your holiday apartment directly at the exit of the "Klausgraben" - the loneliest and probably most picturesque gorge in the Salzatal. Let yourself be enchanted by this pristine patch of nature.

Weichselboden & Salza

Weichselboden is located in a beautiful valley floor at the foot of the Hochweichsel directly on the Salza. The springs of Vienna's high spring water pipeline arise here, which is why nature conservation has been an undeniable priority in this region for over a century. Hardly anywhere else in Austria will you be able to discover such originality up close...

You don't have to cook for yourself every day. Less than 10 minutes away by car - at the entrance to the Klausgraben Gorge - is our "neighbor" Gasthof Leitner.
