For over 30 years, the Dr. Manfred Maus family has been running the 4* Superior Hotel PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT with a keen sense for their guests and the treasures of the region.

The resort offers an extensive range of both mental wellness and activity programs, as well as culinary delights from the upscale regional cuisine of the Palatinate and Alsace. Thanks to its location in the middle of the Palatinate Forest and the nearby Northern Vosges Mountains, the resort is an ideal starting point for hiking and biking excursions.

Thus, vacationers relax on comfortable water loungers between ceiling-high, tree-shaped wooden columns, let their gaze wander over the garden paradise from the daybeds and the cozy seating areas, or rest on the large hanging swing. Through automatically opening doors, the path leads to the year-round heated infinity pool, the "Sprudelwoog". At pleasant temperatures, they splash around with an atmospheric play of light and soak up the soothing water pressure of the massage jets.

Sauna fans experience the outdoor sauna island with a Finnish sauna with experience infusions, a steam grotto and bio sauna as well as an ice fountain and experience showers. Between classic full-body massages, trendy detoxing massages and cosmetic treatments in the beauty center, wellness-hungry guests choose their own individual pampering program.

In six comfortably modern dining rooms and on the panoramic terrace with an unobstructed view of the Dahn countryside, gourmets at the PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT will enjoy a colorful mix of upscale yet down-to-earth Palatinate cuisine and Alsatian delicacies, such as the top-class cheese selection of Alsatian maître Bernard Antony, who is one of France's leading cheese specialists.

Here, right by the lake, surrounded by the stunning mountain scenery of the Steinernes Meer, the warm-hearted host family around Hannes and Martina Riedlsperger have created an exclusive place of indulgence - a place to relax, recharge your batteries and have a really good time.

The Spa am See is located between the two buildings that make up the Wellnesshotel Ritzenhof. The underground wellness oasis opens directly onto the shore of Lake Ritzensee with a private sunbathing lawn. There you can doze in one of the shell and floating loungers with the sound of the reeds in your ears. An indoor pool, Finnish sauna, textile sauna, steam bath, sanarium, infrared cabin and massages or beauty treatments tailored to your individual needs await you in the spa by the lake.

In winter, the cross-country ski trail runs right past the spa and provides access to the region's extensive network of trails. Some people also chase their childhood memories on ice skates on the frozen Ritzensee or simply warm themselves by the flickering fire.

The stylishly furnished rooms and suites are deliberately kept simple; nothing should distract from the essentials. Clear lines and materials replace the sensory overload to which we are exposed in everyday life. The reduction to the essentials helps you to switch off quickly and consciously move in the here and now.

Wellness
The new wellness area leaves nothing to be desired: Pure relaxation awaits you in the 31° C panoramic indoor pool, in the 36° C XXL sky whirlpool with relaxation loungers or in the equally new rooftop swimming pool (32° C), all with a view of the magnificent Bavarian Forest mountains. After long hikes, you can relax your feet in the foot spa and fortify yourself with healthy tea and fresh juices at the tea bar. Or you can enjoy the soothing warmth of the sauna area with Finnish sauna, aroma steam bath, brine and herbal bath.

In summer, enjoy the peace and quiet in the idyllic wellness garden with sunbathing islands. In the new exclusive beauty and massage area, you will be pampered by expertly trained beauticians with high-quality care products from Guinot and Klapp. Soothing massages and beauty treatments will make your inner and outer beauty shine!

Culinary delights
Let yourself be pampered in one of the 5 different ambiences or enjoy haute cuisine in Oswald's Gourmetstube. Thomas Gerber and his team impress with classic compositions interpreted in an innovative way and can look forward to 1 Michelin Guide star and 4 toques in "Der grosse Restaurant und Hotel Guide" for Oswald's Gourmetstube. Quality at the highest level awaits you.

As part of Oswald's gourmet board, you can look forward to an extensive breakfast buffet, salads, soups and snacks at lunchtime and homemade cakes and coffee in the afternoon. In the evening, our team will spoil you with a 5-course menu of your choice.

The Feuerstein is a veritable land of milk and honey for children and an ideal place for parents to relax and recharge their batteries. A unique offer based on the philosophy of Maria Montessori awaits our little guests as part of our nature-based childcare: Crafts and handicrafts in the wood workshop, playing, climbing and jumping in the play barn, painting in the studio, building sandcastles in the mud room, going on a treasure hunt, baking bread on a stick over an open fire and much more.

While the little ones are well looked after, parents can sit back, relax and enjoy time together. The surrounding mountains beckon you outdoors, the separate adults-only spa area is the perfect place to relax, yoga and meditation sessions ensure pure relaxation and the well-equipped fitness room invites you to work out.

Wellness enjoyment for the whole family awaits in the 3,000 m² Mountain Spa with infinity outdoor pool, three indoor pools, an over 100 m long water slide with timer, various saunas and cozy corners for moments of relaxation together.

Horse lovers will also get their money's worth at the Feuerstein - in the new riding stables with petting zoo. Pony rides, taster lessons for beginners, exciting riding lessons for advanced riders, vaulting and cavaletti lessons and rides through the impressive mountain scenery are all on the program.

Culinary delights ranging from Mediterranean to Alpine cuisine with ingredients from the region are served in the restaurant, which consists of eight dining rooms, and those who want to treat themselves to a very special evening can visit the hotel's own gourmet restaurant, Artifex.

The spacious rooms, suites and chalets, furnished with high-quality natural materials, offer a first-class living atmosphere, with something to suit every family constellation.

Let yourself be enchanted by this magical place.
