Gently nestled between mountain peaks, it lies there, in perhaps the most beautiful valley in the world. Our Hotel Valavier is located in the Brandnertal – embraced by the Rätikon and guarded by the sky itself.

Immerse yourself in gentle water. Free yourself from everyday worries. Let yourself be carried by the element. Find lightness. Let yourself drift. The view of the sky. No matter whether in the year-round heated outdoor pool directly in the paradise garden. Splashing around with the children at the children's pool. Or indoors in the stylish sky bath, with a heavenly panoramic view over the Brandnertal. We love it when you show up with us to hide away.

Real warmth and real people: these are our inclusive services. Come in to Valavier!

Our adventure pool invites you to splash around and relax, while the whirlpool promises maximum comfort.

In the Finnish panorama sauna, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the mountains at 83 °C and recharge your batteries. The steam bath at a pleasant 44 °C and the light-flooded relaxation room offer further peaceful places to relax and unwind. Experience the soothing effects of exclusive beauty treatments and feel all tension melt away in the tranquil atmosphere of our wellness area.

In our elegant restaurant you can enjoy the finest regional and international dishes, prepared with fresh, local ingredients. Treat yourself to an exceptional culinary experience - from breakfast to dinner.

Active vacation in the Allgäu
Whether on a hike through the impressive mountain landscape, in our 235 m² panoramic fitness world or with a varied sports program: the Allgäu offers countless opportunities for an active vacation. Our guests can choose from numerous sports courses such as aqua fitness, yoga, Drums Alive or abdominal-leg-buttocks gymnastics and thus bring body and mind into harmony. Guests taking part in the Schroth Cure can optimally combine activating therapeutic fasting with targeted exercise units for new energy, inner balance and a strengthened body feeling.

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.

The Gassenhof is an adventure resort in the truest sense of the word. Those who spend their vacation at this hotel in Ridnaun enjoy relaxing moments in and around the adventure resort.

In summer, a hiking vacation in South Tyrol becomes an unforgettable experience. We accompany you on alpine hikes or high mountain tours and introduce you to the flora and fauna of South Tyrol. During cozy hours in the traditional alpine huts, you will learn many an anecdote from the Ridnaun Valley.

In winter, the area around the adventure village is ideal for cross-country skiing and skiing vacations in South Tyrol. The snow-sure Racines/Ratschings Valley with its wide cross-country ski trails and perfectly groomed pistes is a true Eldorado for winter lovers.
We offer you an unforgettable experience of the relaxing kind in the Gassenbadl and in the new Logen Spa of our wellness hotel near Racines/Ratschings.

Enjoy the peace and quiet and let us pamper you!

Europe's greenest hotel is in South Tyrol: on the trail of sustainability
In 2023, the climate-positive Naturhotel Leitlhof was awarded the title of "Europe's Leading Green Hotel" for the fourth time and can once again call itself an official "climate partner". The hotel also meets the criteria of the Global Sustainable Tourism Council. The commitment to nature and climate protection includes the energy supply with its own wood-fired combined heat and power plant, electric car charging stations and local suppliers.

South Tyrolean slow food in its most original form
The cuisine at Naturhotel Leitlhof is sustainable, regional and seasonal. The chefs use freshly picked herbs from their own garden to refine their dishes. The nearby farm "Mühlhof", which also belongs to the Mühlmann family, provides the hotel with many types of vegetables and potatoes from its own fields. These ingredients are used to cover all the kitchen requirements. The high-quality meat also comes directly from the farm - from the hotel's own Angus cattle farm.

Hiking in the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites
As a member of "Wanderhotels - best alpine", the nature hotel is the ideal starting point for hikes, mountain and trekking tours. The trails into the world-famous Sesto Dolomites start right outside the door. The hotel's own hiking map with tips from local guides and two certified guides show Leitlhof guests the most beautiful routes off the beaten track several times a week. Tip: Hike to the Toblacher Pfannhorn at 2,663 meters.

Alpine spa between onsen pool and pine sauna
Since 2023, Leitlhof guests have been enjoying the 3,000 square meter wellness area in the South Tyrolean four-star superior hotel. The newly designed spa landscape attracts visitors with highlights such as the Japanese-style onsen pool, the black Finnish sauna and the fragrant Swiss stone pine sauna. The omnipresent panoramic view of the Dolomites makes the wellness experience even sweeter. As part of the numerous wellness treatments, the wellness professionals use products from the South Tyrolean cosmetics line Team Dr. Joseph. These are certified organic and 100 percent natural.

Insider tip for historically interested strollers
Just a ten-minute walk from the Naturhotel Leitlhof (and three minutes from the second hotel, Atto Suites & Cuisine), the historic center of San Candido surprises with its culture and long-established craft businesses. The collegiate church, Franciscan monastery and the famous DoloMythos Museum in the pedestrian zone take visitors on a journey through time between the World Heritage Site and the Middle Ages. Cozy felt slippers have been rolled at the Zacher hat maker's workshop for generations.

By bike and train through Val Pusteria/Pustertal
Val Pusteria/Pustertal in the north-east of South Tyrol is a paradise for two-wheeled enthusiasts thanks to its numerous attractive routes, some of which even cross borders. Guests of the Naturhotel Leitlhof can hire bikes and mountain bikes free of charge at the hotel, e-bikes for a fee. With the Mobilcard, buses and trains can be used free of charge throughout South Tyrol. Among the most beautiful routes are those to the Sesto mountain pastures and to Cortina d'Ampezzo - guided bike tours regularly take Leitlhof guests there.

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.

As one of the few adults-only hotels in South Tyrol, the 4-star S hotel offers a stylish ambience to enjoy a romantic time for two.

Royal relaxation is guaranteed by the spacious spa area with indoor and outdoor pool, natural bathing pond, whirlpools and 4 saunas with several infusions per day and plenty of resting places.

In some of the exclusive suites you can also enjoy private spa moments. The suites with a private sauna and a free-standing bath add a golden touch to your time-out.

In addition to those looking for relaxation, active vacationers also feel like kings at Kronplatz, a real adventure playground, they will certainly get their money's worth.

Precious moments of culinary pleasure make your holiday unforgettable. In addition to the imperial breakfast, the hotel offers cakes and hearty snacks in the afternoon and an excellent 4-course menu in the evening.

The spacious property has 111 rooms and suites in an impressive Art Nouveau building ensemble. The Gästehaus Halenberg welcomes arrivals in the spacious foyer, whose eye-catcher is God Bacchus, carved out of stone and enthroned above a soothingly rippling fountain. Guests can choose between modern rooms and suites in the Halenberg guest house and the tastefully furnished romantic rooms in the original guest houses. The detached Heimat & SPA Lodges on the mountain offer a very individual and discreet type of vacation.

Like the Gästehaus Halenberg, the SPA Frühlingsplätzchen is named after one of the premium vineyards on the Nahe. Covering an area of approx. 3,500m², the SPA is a wonderful place to relax in Finnish saunas, a bio sauna, steam baths, an indoor pool and whirlpool as well as five differently designed relaxation rooms. The wellness offer is complemented by outdoor attractions such as the Hubertus sauna, the 20-metre-long heated outdoor pool and the SPA garden by the river. In 2020, the exclusive Prana SPA celebrated its opening. It is dedicated to the "activation of energy centers", individual chakra work, meditation and aerial yoga.

The multi-award-winning wellness resort in the heart of Rhineland-Palatinate owes its fame not least to its exquisite cuisine: in addition to the Villa restaurant and the Hermannshof gourmet restaurant, the Jungborn attracts guests from near and far. For many years in a row, it has held the coveted Michelin star under the direction of chef Philipp Helzle. The newest event venue at BollAnts in Bad Sobernheim is the LINDEN bar & lounge. The kitchen team serves small and large dishes for lunch and dinner. The experienced bartender spoils you with creative cocktails, long drink classics and advises you on the choice from the extensive wine list.

Many guests also come to BollAnts for therapeutic fasting. Pastor Emanuel Felke once worked here and relied on the healing power of the natural elements of earth, light, air and water. The tradition of this Felke healing method has been continued and further developed under the medical direction of Dr. Axel Bolland. Together with his team at Felke Med Praxis, he looks after fasting guests who want to completely regenerate body and mind and embark on the "royal road to health".

Our offer: Overnight stay in a Wellness Classic room . Small, fine, cozy and stylish! The Wellness Classic rooms are generously equipped, some with a balcony and a view of the romantic Art Nouveau park. They are located in the historic part of the building ensemble, in the BollAnts Original Guest Houses. Other room categories are available for an extra charge. Our reservations department will be happy to help you find the right room.
