TRUE DELIGHT
The mowing of the mountain meadows and the hay harvest afterwards, the shearing of the sheep, milking and processing the milk on our own farm – all that connects us with nature and its raw materials. The gourmets among our guests delight in this. When our head chef Rudl turns this high-quality regional produce into delicious treats, you can taste it: the fresh air, the mountain sun of the Ötztal valley and the love we have for our homeland.
This is enjoyment at the highest level.
