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.

In the middle of the Salzburg mountains, guests of all ages can enjoy year-round swimming fun in the new indoor pool with outdoor grotto.

Highlights for family vacations include the water play park with tube slide and trio slide, the Kesselino children's club, the new mini bowling alley in the youth room and the small pony farm for exciting riding adventures.

Griaß di
Even Aunt Lisl knew that in addition to mountains and well-fluffed pillows, you also need a good meal, a cozy place to relax, an open heart and good food for a really good gut feeling. That was over 70 years ago.
Since then, we as a family have gone many new ways to preserve this special feeling of home and to reinterpret vacation for you. Our wellness and hiking hotel Gassner **** superior has grown out of the small forest guesthouse - and the pretty Gassner tree house too.

As a genuine family business, we are the perfect complement, because we could hardly be more different. Together with our wonderful Gassner Seilschaft, we bring a lot of warmth, charm and life into the hotel. That's probably why so much of our work is so individual and varied.
Come and join us and be surprised by the wonderful way in which our contrasts attract you. Mia gfrein ins auf di!

Feel good
Still waters and cozy warmth. Deep-rooted naturalness and airy lightness. From inside to outside. From above to below. From sweet idleness to conscious being. In our Crystal and GardenSPA on over 1,200 m², the opposites merge so naturally that you will realize with a satisfied smile how wonderfully enriching it can be to always find a new favourite place for yourself. Before, after, instead or in between - you can mix everything with everything for a relaxing break.

Are you a true child of nature and just as drawn to the outdoors as we are? Wonderful, because as a member of the best hiking hotels in the Alps, our main aim is to find strength and inspiration in nature all year round.
On at least 5 guided hikes, we, hiking guide Monika and boss Hans-Peter Gassner, would like to introduce you to the diversity of nature in the surrounding mountains, hike with you through blooming alpine pastures and climb over perpetual ice to the region's panoramic peaks.

We would like to accompany you on snowshoe and winter hikes to the idyllic snow-covered places of the Hohe Tauern National Park and show you personally how renewing it can be to walk at eye level with nature.

Gassner tree house
Wonderfully close to nature and also a little off the beaten track. 147 m² all to yourselves. A retreat for newlyweds, longtime lovers and the whole family. We believe that when it comes to togetherness, you need a particularly cozy place on this earth and so our dream of an extraordinary vacation nest is yours.

There are many beautiful houses. But the most important thing is the people who live in them, laugh together and do their best together. So feel free to speak from the heart and meet us at eye level.
