At the Airstream on the roof of the alpine boutique hotel, it’s hardly surprising that a sea lion can now also be found here at SEPP. Unlike the caravan from 1976, the BYD model named Sealion 7 is a new classic. It’s available on the ground floor for rent for panoramic drives starting at the foot of the Hochkönig.

Earth, stone, water, air – and time. Together, they shape mountains and trails as unique as we are. In the Leogang Steinberge, this natural richness comes alive on two wheels: mindful trails invite you to slow down, explore, and choose your own path. Whether you’re drawn to ease or seeking a challenge – at Puradies, new bike guide Lukas is there to guide you. With the right route. And maybe even a gentle detour back to yourself.
Adults-only retreat in the Zillertal: ElisabethHotel Private Retreat in Mayrhofen offers stylish living, deep sleep, and a spa for mindfulness and peace.
Like a green thread, the beauty of nature weaves through the Tyrolean mountains and alpine meadows of the Zillertal, reaching all the way to the edge of town into Das Kaltenbach – Aparthotel. There, it quietly shines on in the design, more than ever since the gentle “glow up.”
Summer rituals are simple, yet never random. They provide grounding, ask for no effort or perfection, feel light – and make life feel deeply worthwhile.
The old house on the church square has stood for centuries. Its oldest parts date back to 1661—a date engraved into the intricately carved beams of the parlour.

The house looks back with respect and forward with care.
Saluting the sun comes naturally at Puradies – the high plateau is one of the sunniest places in Leogang. Yoga is just one of the many heavenly activities you’ll find here.

The New Hotel Palais Mailberger Hof in the Heart of Vienna. A place where Baroque charm meets modern design – a must-stay for the style-savvy traveler.
Adam and Eve might have left the apple hanging on the tree had they known about the heavenly Puradies. Nestled on a sun-kissed plateau in Leogang, the resort—home to the Ess:enz restaurant—feels like a taste of paradise itself. Here, not only do countless plants thrive, but also the creative ideas that turn them into seductive, gourmet-level dishes. The real temptation? It’s not just in the apple, but in a cleverly crafted carrot or a perfectly plated portion of Nidei…
Still waters run deep, so they say. But what about dark waters? Dark waters are profound, sometimes healing, but definitely fascinating. Just like the Schwarzsee in Kitzbühel. Under the watchful eye of the Wilder Kaiser, not only the gentle waves of the water unfold here, but also the gentle waves of relaxation at the Alpenhotel Kitzbühel.
Ah yes! This is what it feels like when you find your inner self again. In everyday life, we often get lost in work or other distractions and forget to be mindful of ourselves. But there are places that can help you to embark on this powerful journey again. For example, the four-star Hotel Alpin Juwel – a gem with a holistic detox retreat.
If you want to spell the Alfa Hotel, you might find more suitable words than Andrew, Lucy and Frederick – words that capture the feeling of this special place: A for alpine, L for letting go, F for finesse and A for a time out. All of this reflects in the spa area of the four-star hotel in Serfaus, which recently added an outdoor relaxation pool to provide even more space for relaxation.

What nickname does the Gradonna have? Does it even have one? We don’t know. But what we do know: It is not only a four-star superior resort, but also serves as a film set. What does this have to do with a nickname? The film of the same name in german “Der Spitzname”, which can currently be seen in cinemas, was shot here – with a top-class cast in a renowned setting on the Grossglockner.
Who says A, must also say B? That’s right. Artisan Walk, Afternoon Tea and Afterwork Cocktail are three experiences curated by the Hotel Bristol for a mindful visit to Vienna. On a walk through the city centre, back doors open to traditional artisan businesses, tea and scones can be enjoyed in the lounge by a crackling fire and the American Bar invites you to unwind after work.
Today we find tracks in the snow. When it’s winter in Seefeld, you can see the imprints of boots, cross-country skis, toboggans and alpacas on the ground. And after the many outdoor activities, we retire to the Chalet & Apartment AlpenParks Alpina Seefeld with the prize behind door number 23: three nights for two including breakfast.
