We see our own thermal spring as the source. Water as the invigorating element. Immerse yourself, forget the time and let us pamper you. Pure deceleration. As Bad Füssing's founding hotel, we are proud of our tradition. We have our sights firmly set on the future. We have created a unique resort wellness world that sets completely new standards and certainly leaves no wish unfulfilled. "The place for all the senses"

AVIVA is totally different. Eat together at large, sociable tables, get involved in a comprehensive daily programme of activities and entertainments with other guests, take part in more than 100 themed sports days (such as yoga, hiking, mountain biking, marathon training, etc.) and many events (beach party, white night, Oktoberfest, wine festival, etc.). There are guaranteed to be no couples and children at AVIVA, so you can simply chat, make friends, dance, party and relax - or simply have some time to yourself.  AVIVA is a relaxed, informal club holiday at 1,000 metres above sea level that retains superior four star standards, offering a 2,000-plus m2 spa with captivating views of the Alps, where you can dine in company, party in the hotel’s disco and field, brew beer in the Brau Boutique, relax in traditional comfort in the hotel’s mountain meadow, chill out in the magical location, pamper yourself with massage and beauty treatments, or simply enjoy some “me” time.

Surrounded by a green park, the Tannenhäuschen is a place of pure relaxation and deceleration. With our 5,300 m² AQUA SILVA Spa , we have created a special kind of feel-good place, ideal for a wellness weekend or wellness hotel short break of relaxation. A large sauna park with eight saunas, two indoor pools, an outdoor pool, as well as numerous rooms for wellness treatments are waiting to pamper you with all your senses.

Don't miss out on the "Tannenhäuschen magic"!

Away from everyday life, at an altitude of 1,700 m on the Arlberg's energy plateau, you will experience complete freedom in Oberlech am Arlberg. Dramatic panoramic views, car-free in winter, in the middle of nature, surrounded by loving vacation companions that you can take advantage of as you please. Ski-in & ski-out in winter and walk-in & walk-out in summer. True to the motto "More space, more time", we offer everything your body, mind and soul need for Holistic Selfcare & Longevity.

HOLISTIC SELFCARE: THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY CONCEPT IN THE ALPS.
Our concept aims to promote holistic wellbeing and longevity - the term used to describe healthy ageing. To this end, we offer conscious time-outs with various retreats, yoga sessions and unique experiences that touch you on a physical, mental and spiritual level.

ME TIME:
Take time for your personal ME time and experience yoga at special places of power or authentic alpine bathing and hikes along the path of being. The energy medicine treatments and great teachings are led by experienced coaches and trainers. You can enjoy BEING in the natural living room of the Goldener Berg.

SPA TIME:
Our Alpine Spa, renovated in 2024, will not only impress you with vigorous swims in the 23-metre-long outdoor infinity pool with whirlpool function. You also have the choice between three large saunas, some with wonderful views of the mountains. There is also a mountain cave pool terrace and indoor pool, also with a magnificent view of the Omeshorn, the local mountain. The extended relaxation rooms also look in this direction and the Swiss stone pine room in particular increases the level of relaxation thanks to the delicate scent of this wood. The fitness room and adjoining yoga and meditation room offer space for conscious movement.

TIME TO ENJOY:
Plant-based alpine cuisine with delicious vitamin bombs, detoxing with vegan-vegetarian, alkaline and ketogenic menus, through to dishes that are familiar to us: Grandma's recipes, traditionally prepared the way we've always loved them. Whichever culinary option you choose, you are sure to find a fine wine from one of Austria's largest wine cellars to accompany it. Everything is possible - nothing is a must. In winter, you can choose from 4 restaurants (1 of them with 3 toques from Gault Millau) and 2 sun terraces as part of our Dine Around half board.

BERGZEIT:
Summer & fall:
Blooming wildflower meadows and the view of the mountain peaks let you forget everyday life at the Hotel Goldener Berg. Around 350 km of marked hiking trails as well as bike routes and climbing tours are waiting to be discovered. The Lech Golf Club has an 18-hole and a 9-hole course. A vacation at the Hotel Goldener Berg is also ideal for families, as numerous activities for young and old await you in the surrounding area. As a guest at the Goldener Berg, you can book the Lech Card from 2 days: enjoy special benefits such as free use of all cable cars, guided themed hikes, use of the local bus and much more.

Winter:
Free from the crowds, get on your skis right outside the hotel and off you go: over 300 kilometers of pistes and 200 off-piste kilometers await you in Austria's largest ski area. But even without skis, you are in good hands on the Goldener Berg: Directly from the hotel, there are many kilometers of wonderful hiking trails, cross-country ski trails or Nordic walking as well as jogging trails, which are perfectly groomed every day. All of these sports in beautiful natural surroundings are easy to learn and bring joy to the heart. The snow-covered mountain panorama around the Hotel Goldener Berg is also a perfect backdrop for mediation, alpine bathing, heart and tidal walks.

It's time to surrender to the good, conscious life - to give your body something that is of uncanny importance.

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.
