Spring

Spring in the Valley is an ideal time for re-vitalisation and renewed energies.

The ultra-modern health and beauty centre in the heart of the Resort, next to the thermal swimming pool, offers and opportunity for a "spring clean" of both body and mind.

Following the principle "health, vitality and beauty" the highly trained beauticians can tailor individual programmes for all couples and their guests.

Movement therapy or health and wholefood bring body and soul back to life.

Numerous cleverly devised activities and attractions ensure that every day of your stay is a new experience. Your hosts are lively characters brimming with ideas for you and your guests.

Summer

Gentle spring attractions deepen in intensity come summer. The sensuality of this time of year in the Valley simply cannot be ignored. The strong smell of fresh hay, lush and green mountain forests and lively mountain streams contribute to a summer ambiance that goes straight to people's hearts. Nestling in this paradise is our Alpine Valley Resort. It has enjoyed the reputation of being a first class summer retreat for decades. Meeting at the pool, wandering around in the best of company of enjoying a cool drink at the bar, add up to a refreshing experience. The most energetically inclined are improving their game on the tennis court. In complete contrast, others are enjoying a game of chess outside. Walking, hiking or mountaineering are ideal ways of improving body and soul. Archery, boules, tabletennis and trout fishing - there is scarcely enough time left for the Martini at Happy Hour. And at the local golf course, professionals and beginners are equally at home putting their handicap to the test.

Autumn

Autumn comes to the Valley in a contrasting and beautiful way. Mountains, fields and forests are colourfully transformed. Mellow autumn takes summer's place. The warm autumn sunshine greets the Valley. The thoughts turn once again to curative and health treatments. Piped mineral water from the Resort's own source provides the opportunity for up-to-date treatment facilities with massage and fitness programmes which are a balm for the body, soul and mind. Clear sunny days combined with pleasant temperatures tempt visitors on memorable outings in the great outdoors. Along marvellous paths of all kinds one can admire the most beautiful scenery of the High Tauern mountains. From the Malerwinkel to the Prossau, from Höchenweg to Gastein and up to the Reed Lake - fascination prevails, as far as the eye can see. This is the time of year of special appeal.

Traditional customs of the Salzburg province are still practised in the Valley. Autumn sees especially colourful celebrations taking place. The return of the cattle from the high alpine summer pastures to the valley below, along with harvest festival, are still traditionally celebrated.

Winter

Winter sneaks quietly and cautiously into the Valley. The entire valley gleams white. It will soon be Christmas and preparations for the year's most beautiful celebration are well under way at the resort. There's a smell of ginger cakes and candles in the air: there's a cosy friendly atmosphere around the Valley. Among friends at the Resort, Christmas becomes a truly meaningful celebration.

Outside the valleys, mountains and forests are covered in snow offering endless opportunities for fun. Sunny cross-country skiing routes and romantic tracks lead direct from the hotel into the Valley.

There are fast and acary sleigh rides there too. If you are ice-stick shooting, then schnapps, gluewein or grog will warm you up. Nostalgic horsedrawn sleigh rides seem almost to melt the ice. On the best prepared slopes, keen skiiers are in full swing. Lifts up to 9,180ft ensure that there is enough snow until April. Then, it's time to wave goodbye to the frozen winter and welcome the warm spring. And all this, in Salzburg provinces most beautiful ski resort.

Please book early for winter dates as this is a popular time.
