Aunt Lisl already knew: in addition to mountains and well-fluffed pillows, you also need a good feeling, a cozy place to relax, an open heart and good food for a really good stomach feeling. That was over 70 years ago.
Since then, we as a family have gone many new ways - always with the aim of preserving this special feeling of home and rethinking vacation for you. The small forest guesthouse has grown into our Hotel Gassner 4* Superior - and the pretty Gassner tree house too. Discover us at Leading Spa Resorts and find out why real relaxation with us is much more than just a beautiful spa - it's a matter of the heart.
As a genuine family business, we are the perfect complement. We could hardly be more different - and that's what makes us special. Together with our wonderful Gassner Seilschaft team, we bring a lot of warmth, charm and life into the hotel. That's probably why we are so individual and diverse. Join us and let yourself be surprised by the wonderful ways in which our contrasts enrich you. Mia gfrein ins auf di!

Feel good
Still waters and cozy warmth. Deep-rooted naturalness and airy lightness. From indoors to outdoors. From sweet idleness to conscious being. In our Crystal and GardenSPA on over 1,200 m², opposites merge in such a natural way that you realize with a satisfied smile how wonderfully enriching it can be to always find a new favourite spot. Before, after, instead or in between - treat yourself to mixing everything with everything.

Out and about
Are you a true child of nature and just as drawn to the outdoors as we are? Wonderful. As a member of the best hiking hotels in the Alps, we are all about finding strength and inspiration in nature all year round.
On at least five guided hikes, we - hiking guide and boss Hans-Peter Gassner - will take you on a journey of discovery: through blooming alpine pastures, over perpetual ice, up to the region's panoramic peaks. In winter, we are happy 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. When it comes to deep relaxation and genuine closeness, you need a particularly cozy place on this earth - and so our dream of an extraordinary vacation nest can also become 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.

THE BREAK ISLAND IN THE PALATINATE FOREST

For over 30 years, the Dr. Manfred Maus family has been running the 4* Superior Hotel PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT with a keen sense for their guests and the treasures of the region. True to the motto "Recreation is celebrating the break", the house started 2019 with extensive innovations and impresses with a 55,000 square meter garden area with adjacent, in-house forest area including a natural bathing pond, outdoor sauna island as well as a new two-story panorama house with year-round heated outdoor infinity pool and extensive relaxation zones.

The resort offers an extensive range of both mental wellness and activity programs, as well as culinary delights from the upscale regional cuisine of the Palatinate and Alsace. Thanks to its location in the middle of the Palatinate Forest and the nearby Northern Vosges Mountains, the resort is an ideal starting point for hiking and biking excursions.



SIMPLY SWITCH OFF IN THE MENTAL WELLNESS OASIS

In the PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT guests enjoy holistic relaxation and mental wellness offers in the spacious spa and vitality world with three different saunas, indoor pool and panoramic whirlpool overlooking the valley of the Dahner Felsenland. In the new panorama house of the PFALZBLICK those looking for relaxation spend deeply relaxed hours with forest feeling on two floors. In the modern relaxation rooms designed in warm colors, wellness fans not only find themselves in the midst of nature with a view of the adjacent Palatinate Forest, but also immerse themselves in a peaceful feel-good atmosphere thanks to the combination of natural materials and design elements. Thus, vacationers relax on comfortable water loungers between ceiling-high, tree-shaped wooden columns, let their gaze wander over the garden paradise from the daybeds and the cozy seating areas, or rest on the large hanging swing. Through automatically opening doors, the path leads to the year-round heated infinity pool, the "Sprudelwoog". At pleasant temperatures, they splash around with an atmospheric play of light and soak up the soothing water pressure of the massage jets.

Sauna fans experience the outdoor sauna island with a Finnish sauna with experience infusions, a steam grotto and bio sauna as well as an ice fountain and experience showers. Between classic full-body massages, trendy detoxing massages and cosmetic treatments in the beauty center, wellness-hungry guests choose their own individual pampering program.

At the intergenerational family hotel PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT, every member of the family - from grandchildren to grandparents - will find relaxation and adventure amidst the pristine nature of the Palatinate Forest. Water rats enjoy the natural bathing pond. Little explorers go with grandma, grandpa and Co. on the numerous premium hiking trails directly from the resort grounds, following in the footsteps of the castle ghost and the old legends that entwine themselves around the bizarre rock formations and the numerous castles of the Palatinate Forest Nature Park. Should the Palatinate sun not shine, nearby museums and an ore mine are waiting to be discovered.

ENJOYMENT: CREATIVE CUISINE WITH HANDPICKED INGREDIENTS

In six comfortably modern dining rooms and on the panoramic terrace with an unobstructed view of the Dahn countryside, gourmets at the PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT will enjoy a colorful mix of upscale yet down-to-earth Palatinate cuisine and Alsatian delicacies, such as the top-class cheese selection of Alsatian maître Bernard Antony, who is one of France's leading cheese specialists. At the same time, the hotel's two restaurants lovingly craft regional and fresh ingredients into sophisticated dishes and offer plenty of variety with seasonal menus and an in-house pâtisserie. A variety of dishes is also available for vegetarians, vegans and allergy sufferers. The highlight of the culinary vacation day at the PFALZBLICK WALD SPA RESORT are the varied theme buffets and menus in the evening. The in-house vinotheque rounds off the culinary offer with 170 top wines from the Palatinate and Alsace. At the weekly wine tasting with host Dr. Manfred Maus, wine lovers can sample the fine wines before ending the evening at the cozy hotel bar in the Kamintreff Altdahn.

In addition to the breathtaking surroundings, the indoor area impresses above all with its professionalism and authenticity. The versatile spa and wellness landscape extends over a total of 4,000 m².

The sauna area has two outdoor log cabin saunas with a natural biotope, Finnish sauna, bio sauna, steam baths, Himalayan salt grotto, Kneipp pool and relaxation rooms. There is a separate ladies' sauna area with bio-sauna and loungers in the beauty pavilion. Anyone who takes a sauna, works out or swims laps naturally needs some well-earned relaxation afterwards. Comfortable loungers and double loungers with a fantastic view over the Black Forest and the beautiful sun terraces invite you to relax. There are also quiet islands for two to four people.

For more relaxation, there is a wide range of soothing treatments to choose from: massages, facial or body treatments, baths and wraps or traditional wellness rituals - alone or as a couple. The signature treatments from nature are also unique, such as special treatments with wild herbs from the Black Forest, massages with warm granite stones and fir oil or rubdowns with pine cones.

Original Ayurveda from Sri Lanka! Original Ayurveda treatments have been offered at the Vier Jahreszeiten am Schluchsee for more than 20 years. The Ayurveda center is integrated on a separate floor of the hotel and an Ayurveda doctor and specialists from Sri Lanka, the country of origin, carry out the holistic treatments.
