The Hettegger host family is the third generation to run the luxurious resort with great warmth and commitment and ensures a personal and cozy atmosphere throughout the hotel every day.

Guests are welcomed in a modern design with spacious alpine-style suites.

An absolute highlight is the 7,000 m² EDELWEISS Mountain Spa with separate adults-only and family areas. The two outdoor pools with views of the breathtaking Grossarl mountains as well as the spacious sauna area and the cozy relaxation rooms offer plenty of space for relaxation.

If you want a little more action in between, you should definitely try out the indoor water slide park with 5 slides over 3 floors - not only children's hearts will beat faster here.

In the evening, guests are treated to culinary delights of the highest order at EDELWEISS Mountain Cuisine. The two-toque award-winning Sirloin Grill & Dine steak restaurant, the in-house sushi bar and the Sakura Asian cuisine line also offer a special moment of indulgence.

The Hotel Freund is picturesquely situated on a hill on the edge of the Kellerwald-Edersee National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in the climatic health resort of Oberorke. Finally there... you are in the FREUND, in your individual time-out, in your long-awaited time for two.

Recreation and pure relaxation in a personal and warm atmosphere awaits you here. Our light-flooded oases of peace with a view of the wellness garden, the sparkling turquoise pool with a 360-degree view of nature, various indoor and outdoor saunas convey a sense of closeness to nature, warmth and well-being. An exceptional range of treatments in the Orkeland SPA Orient round off the relaxation experience.

You can get active with us in many different ways. Hiking from the hotel door, riding our Finnhorses or your own horse, yoga, biking, walking and many other options.

You will find your favorite place in the individually designed living and sleeping rooms with a fantastic view over fields and forests. With unusual materials and refreshing colors, size and comfort just as you wish.

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.
