Sustainability

Our adherence and surpassing of the standards set by the Austrian Ecolabel and the EU Ecolabel, improves your stay in a variety of ways. The last recertification was in 2024.

Next to self set standards and the required standards an environmentally conscious management guarantees excellent quality in every aspect.

Services, supplies and food are bought locally as much as possible. Regionally sourced food ensures a healthy and tasteful experience during your stay.

A comfortable indoor climate with energy-efficient heating control and insulation provides you with extra comfort and high-quality air through carefully selected materials and non-smoking areas – in addition to the fresh Austrian air that lets you breathe freely.

We have also consciously replaced the minibar: instead, you’ll find vending machines in the corridor stocked with delicious drinks and snacks – energy-saving, resource-conscious, and convenient all at once.

You can be sure that we save energy, use water and cleaning products wisely, and minimize waste through conscious purchasing, self-sufficiency, and recycling wherever possible. Our water supply is sourced from seven mountain springs and stored in a 170,000-liter tank. Part of our energy is also self-generated through a photovoltaic system on the lodge’s roof, main roof and team-member house roof. We deliberately avoid building and maintaining energy-intensive outdoor warm water areas, such as an outdoor pool in winter.

With 28 e-charging stations, we are supporting the development of e-mobility and helping to reduce pollutants from combustion engines in the long term.

Less CO2 is emitted and energy used through the use of a biomass boiler system that supplies the entire hotel with CO2-neutral heat. Around 70 percent of the wood chips required come from our own commercial forest.

After the thermal building renovation, which was implemented with the help of an environmental grant from the Federal Ministry of Climate Protection (Bundesministerium Klimaschutz), we save about 4.64 tonnes of CO2 per year.

To compliment the photovoltaic system on the lodge’s roof, we added a much bigger system to the main roof of the hotel at the start of 2023. This system adds 90kW of capacity, which saves about 9.55 tonnes of CO2 per year. That roughly equates to planting 440 trees a year. As a supplement, in 2025 another PV system was installed on the roof of the team house, producing up to 29 kW for our team-members.

In order to save energy and protect the environment, but to make your stay as pleasant as possible at the same time, we have banned the minibars from the rooms and installed three vending machines filled with delicious drinks and snacks.
