Jochdohle

Stubaier Gletscher – Höhe 3150 m, 6167 Neustift im Stubaital, A
Architecture: Peter Kaserer (2000-2001) Builder-owner: Stubaier Bergbahnen KG, Wintersport Tirol Open to the public: Via the cable lift services Eisgrat I, Eisgrat II and Schaufeljoch to the Schaufeljoch mountain station then approx. five minutes walk. Accessibility: all year round during hours of operation TIP: "Stubaier Gletscherpfad” (Stubaier Glacier Path) from the Eisgrat mountain station up to the Jochdohle (250 metres elevation, approx. one hour walk).

The "Jochdohle” is Austria’s highest altitude mountain restaurant (3150 metres). Sitting on a small rock ledge and secured to the rock face is a three storey steel tower, which serves as a structural and functional "backbone”. Steel girders are fixed to the tower in a radial manner. During the summer the round silver shimmering building hovers above the glacier; in winter it sinks into the fresh snow.
