LOCATION: LEOGANG
Last weekend I had the opportunity to stay at the Naturhotel Forsthofgut which is part of the ‚Heimathotels’ located in Leogang. It’s a two hours drive from Munich and we checked in in the evening, it gets dark at 4pm and we were surprised by a beautiful view over the mountains when we woke up. The room was fantasic, a perfect mix of classic and modern with a huge closet and the bath tub had a panorama window. The breakfast was just – mhhh – please take me back! As you know I love breakfast and brunch and everything that goes with it. The breakfast area is located at a restaurant that looks towards the mountains and you have 200 regional products to choose of. They had like 20 different kinds of cornflakes and fruits, bread, rolls, joghurt, muffins, omeletts, scrambled egg, waffles, marmelades, fish, sausages, honey, berry water, coffee and so on, like everything! We were super lucky to have a hotel tour afterwards and a program at the Salzburger Hof which I will talk about in the next post. We had an amazing 7 course dinner (vegan smoothie, salmon, kaviar, tomato gnocchi with mozarella and rucola, salty caramel cream desert, cheese) and enjoyed the spa area which will be even bigger in May – attention guys, there will be a panorama sauna, pool and whirlpool! How about that? You can book several massages, treatments and relax in the indoor and outdoor pool. The sauna area is huge and so beautiful, a perfect place to relax and calm down from the work stress, everything reminds you of nature and the hotel is one of the top 20 wellness hotels in Austria. Although the hotel has 90 rooms in different themed spaces you don’t feel crowded at all, I was very surprised by that. The hotel is also a two minutes walk away from the cable railway that brings you directly to the top of the Asitz, perfect for skiing, snowboarding and hiking. To sum up, the stay at the Forsthofgut was perfect and I would love to visit it again in summer!
