Erlebnisort Gassenhof: Your sustainable holiday destination

However, compensating for our carbon footprint is just the first step. Reducing it is equally if not even more important. This is why the pleasant warmth that welcomes you inside our hotel now comes from a woodchip-powered plant, while all the electricity is sourced from local hydroelectric power plants. In another light-bulb moment, we decided to replace traditional bulbs with energy-saving LED ones throughout the hotel!

We take care to minimise the waste we produce, and to carefully dispose of it. This is why you will find no single-use plastic bottles at Erlebnisort Gassenhof: for your hikes, we will lend you washable and reusable drinking bottles. It’s you who decides when the room should be cleaned, and bed linen and towels changed. Through all these measures, we have been able to save considerable amounts of plastic, energy, detergent and water.

The fruit, vegetables, meat and fish delivered to our kitchen haven’t come a long way. Besides, our chef’s greatest secret is no secret at all: local tastes better. We get most of our ingredients from local farmers, so we can spoil your palate with the best flavours of our land. Once a week, we offer you a six-course dinner of your choice made entirely with seasonal, locally grown produce. 100% South Tyrolean food – and we bet you can taste the difference! And because even small steps count, once a week we forgo meat and pamper you with a delectable vegetarian menu.
