The Schäfer family
Genuine hospitality? That's what we stand for with our name! Admittedly, we may have stolen this phrase, but we live it with all our hearts. One of the Schäfers is always there, so that all guests are personally welcomed, looked after and bid farewell at the end. And that's a good feeling!

Sustainability
The sensible and efficient use of resources and raw materials is our daily bread. Many small details, sensibly and sustainably solved, add up to the sum of our ecological footprint - and it is precisely this that is particularly important to us. Sometimes it's just little things, sometimes an investment is necessary, but it's worth it. ALWAYS!

Living & vacationing in harmony with nature
The Große Walsertal Biosphere Reserve is located in the Austrian province of Vorarlberg and extends in the middle of Vorarlberg in an easterly to north-easterly direction towards the mountainous center of the province. In 2000, the Große Walsertal was designated a model region by UNESCO as a "biosphere park" due to its particularly outstanding and diverse nature. Green grass mountains next to rugged limestone peaks - this is how diverse and varied the mountain world presents itself. Active relaxation, cultivated cultural landscapes and untouched areas.
