Autumn in the mountains is our insider tip for pleasure-seekers
The mountains of Salzburger Land are stunningly beautiful at any time of year. But fall is the crowning glory. Nature? In a total color frenzy. The views? Breathtaking every day. The weather? More stable than ever. At the same time, Austrian cuisine is in top form. What we actually want to say: Paradise must be a lot like our fall. Use this wonderfully sensual time of year to recharge your energy and happiness reserves before winter. There’s nothing better.
Summer is over – now is the time to make the most of the pleasant temperatures! Book a three-night stay now and we will sponsor your desire for an autumn vacation at the Oberforsthof and give you a free night. Take this opportunity to enjoy the pleasantly warm temperatures and really work off your energy before the cold sets in!
After the summer, the climate is at its healthiest for unlimited sport. Now you can romp around on foot or by bike at all altitudes with almost no restrictions. There are countless challenges for young and old. This also includes a free game on our own golf course. Or our free activity program with all kinds of guided experiences. The mild air is great for your circulation and the altitude training will catapult you to new heights of fitness. Not to mention the endorphins.
Wonderfully, autumn is also an ideal time to relax by the crackling fireplace and snuggle up with your loved ones. This works particularly well if you have previously worked out in the great outdoors. After such a program, we offer extensive sauna sessions, relaxing treatments, daily yoga sessions and cocooning with alpine flair. Be it in your room, in the spa, in our various lounges or by the open fire in the garden.
At harvest time, the whole of Austria is geared up for a culinary pampering program. Autumn offers the best conditions for this. Because now the soil releases the most delicious delicacies. This results in pumpkin and chestnut dishes of all kinds, wonderfully aromatic wild mushroom delicacies, hearty cabbage strudel and farmer’s doughnuts, plenty of game and, not to forget, the Martini goose. You can enjoy almost all of this automatically thanks to our included Oberforsthof cuisine.
With Thanksgiving feasts, customs are also booming in the fall. Now there are celebrations everywhere – and guests are warmly invited to join in. The traditional party series with hundreds of events from the end of August to October is known far beyond Austria’s borders as the “Salzburger Bauernherbst”. At no other time are there such exciting opportunities to immerse yourself in the Austrian way of life. Because now there are countless folk festivals, cheerful and colorful rituals such as the Almabtrieb and the most amazing hands-on offers.
Regardless of the season, you can organize your stay at the Oberforsthof exactly the way you like it. This is ensured by lovingly curated recommendations to experience for yourself as well as many enjoyable extras. Just take a look at our experience cloud or our Oberglücklichmacher menu. Both will turn your vacation dreams into a dream vacation in no time at all.
The Oberforsthof is a second home for family people. In other words, for everyone who appreciates community and a lively, mixed-generation environment. We offer privacy for single travelers, couples, families and groups of friends – but there is also plenty of space for encounters. In the restaurant, in the spa, in the lounges, in the Oberhof with the animals and during the many free group activities. That’s why the hotel feels like home. There is a little “we” feeling everywhere. The Oberforsthof deliberately sets itself apart from the anonymity of classic adults-only hotels.
