The Martin-Busch-Hütte is an Alpine Club hut of the Berlin section of the German Alpine Club in the Tyrolean Ötztal Alps . It is located at an altitude of 2501 meters and can be reached on foot in around three hours from Vent via a driveway. The hut is named after the Tyrolean state school councilor and councilor Martin Busch .
location
The hut is located at 2501 m above sea level. A. southwest of Vent in the Kreuzkamm the Ötztal Alps, southeast below the Kreuzspitze in the rearmost Niedertal . The building stands on an artificially raised terrace near the point where the Niederjochbach (from the Niederjochferner ) and Schalfbach ( flowing from the west of the Schalfferner ) merge to form the Niedertaler Ache .
history
A predecessor of today's Martin-Busch-Hütte was the Samoarhütte, built in 1877, which was destroyed by an avalanche in 1961. This hut was acquired by the former DAV section Mark Brandenburg in 1911, but it soon turned out to be too small. Therefore, in 1938, the Section began building a new house, which was named “Hermann-Göring-Haus”, by the Todt Organization . However, the Second World War prevented the completion of the interior work.
After 1945 the not yet completely finished hut, now under the name Neue Samoarhütte , was used by Austrian customs. In the following time, the Austrian Alpine Association managed the hut under its then chairman Martin Busch and completed the interior work by 1952.
In 1958 the hut was handed over to the Berlin section as the successor to the disbanded Mark Brandenburg section. Two years earlier, the German Alpine Association had agreed to name the hut after the Tyrolean state school council and councilor Martin Busch, who had been responsible for the administration of the Austrian DAV huts after the war.
At the beginning of June, South Tyrolean sheep are herded across the Niederjoch to the meadows of the Niedertal . The shoot in the opposite direction takes place, starting from the Martin-Busch-Hütte, in mid-September.
Tour possibilities
- Kreuzspitze in about 3 hours
- Similaun in approx. 4 hours (through the upper Niedertal), or over the Marzellkamm
- Mutmalspitze in about 4 hours
- Back blackness in about 4½ hours
- Fineil tip in approx. 4 hours
- Saykogel in approx. 3 hours

Risk of landslides and avalanches
In 2012 it was recognized that the east side of the Marzellkamm had become unstable and at risk of landslides due to profound mass movements . In the area of the lower Marzellferner , south of the hut, there is therefore a risk of rock falls and falling rocks. A marked alternative path, which leads from the hut from the north directly to the Marzellkamm, and bypasses its east and south-east flanks, was laid out in 2015/16.
The path from Vent to the hut leads mostly through the steep slopes of the Talleit- and Kreuzspitze, which towers over the valley by more than 1000 m. Due to the east to south-east orientation of the slopes and their dimensions, huge avalanches can be expected in spring from late morning.
