Its secluded location at 700 meters provides the necessary distance from everyday life. Up here, surrounded by meadows and forests and a few scattered old farms, the clocks go slower. It's as if the good old days are hiding up here. You can forget the hustle and bustle and stress, they don't come up here. The Watzmann outside shows us how it's done - calmly reminding us of what's really important in life: Taking time for yourself and your loved ones. "The best times in life are the little moments when you feel that you are in the right place at the right time," is the Alpenhof motto.

At the 4-star superior hotel, you are always in the right place. This starts with the hut-style reception. Of course, the hotel has modern card keys, but there are still a few of the beautiful old key rings with the family crest hanging on the hooks. Tradition combined with modern comfort is how you could describe the style of the Alpenhof. This can also be seen in the Almbar, which has much of what is commonly understood by Bavarian coziness. The restaurant area is more elegant. Here you can enjoy the sumptuous breakfast buffet and the magnificent view outside. In the evening, there are various menus to choose from.

The comfort rooms are designed in a variety of ways, sometimes in a modern, sometimes in a classic country house style. The feel-good Sauna-Alm is really rustic, as the sauna area is reminiscent of cozy alpine huts and Stad'l. The infrared cabin made of Swiss stone pine provides gentle deep warmth, the steam bath is filled with wonderful brine and herbal mist and perhaps the best thing to do after a sauna session in the Hütt'n sauna with a view of the valley in winter is to rub yourself down with powder snow in the sheltered outdoor area. Afterwards, you can retreat to the relaxation rooms, which are designed like tunnels in a salt mine or old barns, where you can relax wonderfully. The adjoining wellness oasis offers an all-round pampering program. The various massages and treatments provide true wellness pleasure. In addition to classic massages, there are Far Eastern SPA massages, Ayurveda massages and special massages for expectant mothers. The cosmetics department uses the organic cosmetics line from Dr. Spiller, an effective skincare line from the region.

Next door in the indoor pool, you should definitely take a leisurely lap on your back and take a look at the hand-carved wooden ceiling. This ancient carpentry technique is no longer found very often. Small carvings on the pillars look very elegant - which is typical of the Alpenhof. Tradition meets modernity and rustic meets elegant. In the outdoor pool, hot meets cold, at least when it's winter and you can swim through the snow-covered landscape. The outdoor pool is heated to a pleasant 30°C all year round, as is the pleasantly warm 37°C whirlpool.

Afterwards, you can lie down in the sun pavilion, look out over the meadows and forests to the mountain peaks and relax. Here, unwinding becomes a tangible reality. And if you haven't had enough exercise while hiking, you're sure to find it in the fitness room with Techno-Gym equipment. Behind the Alpenhof is the Zapletal family. While Stefan Zapletal looks after the hotel with its 52 rooms, his wife Gabi, a trained chef, is in charge of the kitchen. But the most important thing for both of them is their staff. "We provide the frame, our employees paint the picture," says Stefan Zapletal, who is happy to have such a strong team. After all, guests should simply feel at home in this beautiful hotel in the midst of glorious nature.

Your very personal vacation happiness
The Herbst family welcomes you to the Good Life Resort Riederalm 4*S. We look forward to you finding a vacation home with us in Leogang. No matter whether you want to spend a romantic break with your loved one, experience an unforgettable family vacation or forget all your everyday worries on a wellness vacation - here you can feel completely at ease.

Active vacation in a prime location
Look forward to an active vacation in the very best location - at any time of year. The Good Life Resort Riederalm is located directly at the valley station of the Asitzbahn, making it the perfect starting point for outdoor adventures: In winter, you are on vacation in the heart of one of Austria's largest ski areas, the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn. Unlimited skiing fun awaits you here with over 270 kilometers of pistes and 70 modern lifts.
And in summer, the Asitzbahn takes you to the hiking and biking paradise in just a few minutes: 400 km of hiking trails and more than 90 km of bike routes ensure plenty of adventure, fun and action on your active vacation. A very special highlight is the Epic Bikepark Leogang: right on the doorstep of the Riederalm, both mountain bike "rookies" and bike "pros" get their money's worth.

Vacation enjoyment with panoramic views
At the Good Life Resort Riederalm, "perfect location right by the cable car" and "stunning panoramic views" are not mutually exclusive - on the contrary, they complement each other perfectly. A very special luxury awaits you on your vacation at the Riederalm: the panoramic view is omnipresent. Whether swimming in the thermal pool, relaxing in the sauna or enjoying the "dahoam" - all this becomes even more beautiful and magical when you can do it with a view of the Leoganger Steinberge mountains.

Switch off and recharge your batteries in the Mountain SPA
Peace, relaxation and plenty of wellness bliss await adult guests at the Riederalm in the Adults Only Mountain SPA. Do nothing for once, just relax and enjoy the view of the Leogang Steinberge mountains. Take time to dream - or treat yourself to a wellness day just the way you like it. Immerse yourself in the 33 degree thermal pool, filled with healing water from St. Martin/Lofer and enjoy the wonderful panoramic view. The view of the Leogang Steinberge mountains is also omnipresent while sweating in the 90 degree panorama sauna and relaxing in the Zirben-Relax-Cube - welcome to wellness paradise!


Water fun for young and old
Take an adventure pool, a 57.57-metre-long water slide, a family sauna and a relaxation area especially for families - and you have the Pinzgau Water Festival, the water experience for guests of all ages. Water rats get their money's worth here - panoramic views included, of course. Especially in winter, the Pinzgau Water Festival is an absolute family highlight when you're not on the slopes. But smiling faces are also guaranteed on rainy days in spring, summer and fall.

Unforgettable vacation moments with the whole family
We are parents ourselves and therefore know exactly what is needed for a successful family vacation: Plenty of space for time together and experiences with the whole family, but also opportunities to run around and "be a kid" for the kids and places of rest and retreat to relax for the parents. You can look forward to all of this on a family vacation at the Riederalm: the trendy trampoline hall, the adventure park and the traffic park for children right next to the restaurant and a large indoor and outdoor playground will make children's eyes light up, while mom and dad can enjoy a relaxing dinner or wellness time for two.

Luxurious vacation enjoyment in a feel-good atmosphere
Luxury and a feel-good atmosphere come together here: every room and every suite has been lovingly furnished by us so that you can feel completely at ease in your vacation home. High-quality and natural materials, elegant feel-good design and authentic, warm hospitality ensure that you feel at home from the very first moment. With a panoramic view, balcony or terrace - the beautiful mountain landscape is close at hand in summer and winter. Welcome to the Riederalm!

Top-class culinary delights
Indulgence is a top priority at the Good Life Resort Riederalm: Look forward to culinary delights created by host and head chef Andreas Herbst using regional and seasonal ingredients. His creative, experimental cuisine has already been awarded one Michelin star, one Green Michelin star and four Gault&Millau toques; Andreas Herbst is also a member of the renowned "Jeunes Restaurateurs d' Europe" association.

In the morning the sun rises over the peaks, in the evening the lights sparkle in the valley. In this absolute top location on a sun-drenched south-facing slope above Burgeis, every corner of DAS GERSTL Alpine Retreat opens up views that you will never forget, just like the warm, down-to-earth hospitality of the owner family Gerstl.

At 1,500 meters above sea level, guests can enjoy pleasant temperatures even in the warmer months, while relaxing in the open air on box seats by the 18-meter-long, year-round heated infinity pool, on cosy day beds or in the outdoor whirlpool in the sauna garden. Relax, read a good book, take a dip in one of the pools, let your gaze and thoughts wander - all of this is possible at Hotel Gerstl.

The exclusive suites also invite you to do nothing. The new 60 square meter pool suite with a private infinity pool and whirlpool, a large veranda and its own garden for undisturbed togetherness is certainly a special experience. The pleasant vacation feeling of lightness and light-heartedness spreads at the latest during a floating aperitif in the cool water.

If you do want to leave the retreat, there are hikes to nearby Switzerland, mountain bike trails, irrigation canals along historic irrigation channels or a visit to the smallest town in the Southern Alps: the medieval town of Glurns. The Gerstl team also offers daily guided excursions, from guided e-bike tours to joint forest bathing.

After a day full of activities and fresh mountain air, the evening ends with a delicious, multi-course meal. For all their innovative spirit, the Gerstl family relies on tried and tested dishes: the hotel's regionally oriented cuisine, which sources its products from the surrounding area to support the farmers in the valley and protect the environment with short transportation routes, is already a tradition. Once a week on r30 Day, all ingredients even come from within a radius of no more than thirty kilometers - this is when the creativity of head chef Michael Ziernheld and his team is particularly in demand. It is clear how much everyone is behind this concept. When the first elderflowers can be harvested in early summer, for example, fresh blossoms from many of the employees' gardens are brought to the hotel for processing. Fruit, herbs and berries are also grown locally by the GERSTL Unique team. If you would like to take a look behind the scenes of the Gerstl's gourmet workshop, you can do so at the weekly kitchen party. Here, culinary delights are celebrated in a special way and guests are invited to watch the chefs prepare dinner and collect the delicacies from the kitchen in person. If that's not enough, book an exclusive evening at Gerstl's Chef's Table in the middle of the action in the hotel kitchen.

The extent to which the family is rooted in the region is illustrated not only by the r30 philosophy in the food, but also by its continuation in other areas: Building materials are sourced locally wherever possible and are processed by local craftspeople, the cosmetic products are made from regional ingredients and even the staff almost all come from within a radius of just 30 kilometers.
