1. Unique secluded location at 1050 meters
At an altitude of 1050 meters, the Forsthofalm is one of the highest hotels in the area, offering unparalleled tranquility. Here, you won't be disturbed by traffic noise or loud neighbors. The only "neighbors" you might encounter are our friendly alpine cows and the nearby flock of sheep with their young. The secluded location guarantees peace and relaxation away from everyday stress and also provides breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. As you drive up, you'll feel yourself moving away from the crowds and immersing deeper into the peaceful nature that awaits you here.
2. Dog friendly vacation
Dogs are also warmly welcome here and are invited to enjoy nature just as much as you do. Around the Forsthofalm, you will find numerous hiking trails and vast forests, perfect for long walks with your four-legged friends. We do our best to make your dog's stay as pleasant and relaxing as possible. Please contact us for more information.
3. E-bike rental
Leogang is part of Austria's largest biking region, and we are located right in the middle of it! Just outside our hotel door, you'll find the first four bike trails for beginners as well as advanced riders. Whether you're a downhiller, freerider, or e-biker, there's something for everyone, and that's why we have our own e-bike rental, service, and courses. Additionally, we are happy to help you find the best routes to suit your preferences, ensuring you have the ultimate riding experience.

4. Sustainability and ecology
At the Holzhotel Forsthofalm, we prioritize sustainability in all areas. As the name suggests, our Holzhotel is built from glue- and metal-free wood, which reduces our heating costs by 85% and creates a very special atmosphere. Since our renovation in 2008, we have been committed to a thoroughly sustainable energy concept. With thermal solar panels and photovoltaics, we mostly cover our energy needs ourselves. The waste heat from our cooling systems is used to heat the pool, and a smart ventilation system further optimizes energy efficiency.
We also focus on efficiency in water consumption: showerheads and faucets minimize usage and operate in an eco-cycle. Our washing and cleaning machines are eco-certified and are supplemented by natural products like vinegar and citric acid.
Awards such as the Austrian Eco-Label and the EU Eco-Label confirm our sustainable efforts, and we continue to strive to reduce our ecological footprint as much as possible.
5. Culinary highlights
Our organic kitchen is a true feast for the senses. Inspired by the most magical places in the world, it combines creative and regional dishes with flavors from around the globe. Whether vegan delicacies, local meat, or fish from the charcoal grill, each dish surprises with unique taste experiences. To showcase the culinary delights of our kitchen in the best way, we serve our dishes in a sharing style. We invite you to try different dishes, be open to new experiences, and explore and enjoy our show kitchen together with your loved ones.
6. Spa and wellness
Our rooftop spa and pool are a paradise for those seeking relaxation, surrounded by fresh mountain air and fragrant alpine herbs. In our 60° and 90° saunas, you can rejuvenate with natural infusion aromas and feel closer to nature. Afterwards, our outdoor pool is the perfect way to cool down, followed by naps in our Nest. The Nest is the coziest room in the entire hotel, where you can relax and enjoy the view while lounging on the mattresses. Through the panoramic windows that stretch across the entire Sky Spa, you can observe the natural spectacle no matter the weather. For those of you with tension, we also offer a wide range of massages designed to help you relax your muscles and start the day with renewed energy. You can find more information about our spa philosophy HERE.
7. Year-round outdoor activities
The Forsthofalm offers a variety of outdoor activities throughout the year that will delight every nature lover. In summer, extensive hiking trails and the nearby bike park invite you to take long tours, while golf enthusiasts can improve their handicap on the surrounding golf courses. Summer tobogganing and Flying Fox are also available in our area, providing exhilarating fun in the summer temperatures. In winter, the region transforms into a paradise for winter sports enthusiasts: skiing, snowshoeing, and winter tobogganing are on the agenda. Yoga is practiced year-round here as well.
