The Göppinger Cabin is a 1913 built Alpenvereinshutte the section Hohenstaufen - Göppingen of the German Alpine Association in Lechquellengebirge , Vorarlberg , Austria .

location

The Göppinger Hütte is located at 2245  m on the southeast edge of the Gamsboden, northeast of the Johanneskopf. The hut is located in a karst area; the water supply is limited in dry summers. The delivery and disposal takes place via a 2.5 km long material ropeway, which was built a few years ago. Heavy loads have to be transported by helicopter.
