You would like to hike across mountain meadows in summer? To ski in winter, and to stay right next to the slopes? To enjoy clean air and clear water, tasty & healthy food, sauna and wellness, and a great night’s sleep in a comfy bed after an active day in the great outdoors? In that case, our hiking & ski hotel in the Gastein valley is your perfect basecamp. We will share tips on the most beautiful hiking routes with you and take you on guided tours through the surrounding mountain world.
The Salzburger Almenweg Trail runs 350 kilometres in length: it’s a journey through the Pongau Mountains that leads to more than 120 Almen, or alpine farms. Almost one third of the alpine farms that serve food are accessible from Dorfgastein. The trail runs along historical mule paths and past glittering mountain lakes offering views of the glacial world of Hohe Tauern; of course, the delicious specialities of the Alpine farms add to the allure of the Gastein Valley’s mountain landscapes. A very popular event is the Salzburger Almsommer (Summer in the Hills) Festival, which guarantees plenty of variety and intriguing hikes.
We live up to the name ‘active hotel’ – not least because of our fantastic location in the Gastein Valley – at any time of year. The imposing mountain ranges of the Hohe Tauern and Niedere Tauern, which stretch right outside the hotel door, are perfect for being active. The Hohe Tauern invite you to go on high alpine ski tours in the face of mighty three-thousand metre peaks, while the Niedere Tauern, with the Radstädter Tauern as its centre, tempt you to go on gentle winter hikes and moderate snowshoe tours. After a day full of activity, you can regenerate in our Swiss stone pine infrared cabin or the organic herbal sauna with panoramic views.
Dress warmly! Because winter in the Gastein Valley is harsh and has a few attractions to offer. For example, it brings you rolled winter hiking trails, varied snowshoe tours, night-time tobogganing, 35 km of groomed cross-country ski trails, fun curling competitions and romantic horse-drawn carriage rides. But in the Gastein Valley, skiing is king after all – the Dorfgastein-Großarl ski area offers 200 km of groomed pistes for leisure skiers and carving pros, freeride parks and speed runs for adrenaline junkies and the best hut cuisine for connoisseurs.
"The way up the mountain is the way to the people, you are more relaxed, more spontaneous, more cordial - it's as if some things stay in the valley."Robert Fankhauser
