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 Cinderella Beauty & Relax Spa on 1500 m² leaves nothing to be desired. In the indoor area of 900 m², an indoor pool with a vortex canal, massage niches and a plunge pool, filled with Tauern spring water, invite you to take a dip. In the comfortably warm outdoor pool with massage bench, you can look directly at the breathtaking mountain peaks of the Tauern. The highlight is the hot tub right on the Edelweiss slope. If it is more than 36 degrees warm, close your eyes and let your mind wander, it couldn't be better. Two original Finnish Kelo saunas with a view of the unique mountain landscape, the steam bath with hand-shaped ceramics, the brine grotto and the tepidarium get tired muscles going again. Recharge your batteries in the "Room of Silence" and "Room of the Sun", switch off and find peace of mind - a guarantee for slowing down and taking a break from everyday life.
In the certified GUINOT institute, the highly qualified beauty team pampers you with the exclusive cosmetics line. Innovative treatment methods in technology and relaxation, always individually tailored, have their finger on the pulse.
The fitness room is equipped with the latest "Technogym" equipment, there is something for every workout and with a view of the imposing Plattenkar massif, motivation comes naturally.
Passion and cordiality - the credo of the hosts - is reflected in the whole house. The combination of natural building materials and modern design, paired with extraordinary eye-catchers, gives the house its unique atmosphere. "We look forward to your eyes!"
Delicacies from the region and around the world await you in the dining room. The late riser breakfast with regional organic products is available until 11 a.m., the perfect start to the day. As a refreshment in between, treat yourself to the ski snack, which is available from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. In the evening, you will be tempted by the finely composed 4-course menu, daily with crisp, fresh salads from the buffet and the exquisite “Cinderella Fondue Evening”. End the evenings in style and in good company at the elegant bar with cozy lounge furniture by an open fireplace. Moments that become memories.
The leading house on the square in the heart of Obertauern is looking forward to your visit.
