Summer days at DAS.GOLDBERG

    

DAS.GOLDBERG is located where the Gastein Valley becomes open and wide. The 5-star hotel is enthroned on a high plateau above Bad Hofgastein with a view of the mountains of the Hohe Tauern National Park. Nature is part of the concept here - noticeable in the architecture, the materials, the attitude.

When you get up in the morning, you step out onto the balcony and see nothing but meadows, forest and sky. The day begins quietly. Put on your hiking boots, explore the valley, discover trails that start right outside the front door. Over 350 kilometers of hiking trails criss-cross the surrounding area, leading to alpine pastures, viewpoints and quiet clearings. Accompanied by hiking guide Christian, walking becomes an experience - with knowledge about the flora, the history of the region and its power. Those who prefer to travel by e-bike can cycle along nature up to the high-altitude trails - sporty or relaxed, always accompanied by the panorama of the Tauern.

Back at the hotel, the focus shifts to the inside. The "Nature's Nest" spa offers space to switch off - with wood, stone and soothing reduction. The GOLD.STOLLEN, inspired by the Gastein Healing Gallery, is a place of heat, moist air and tranquillity. Nothing distracts. Those who then climb into the 22-metre-long infinity pool, which seems to protrude over the edge of the terrain, look directly into the distance. Just a few steps away, another world opens up: the natural bathing lake. Embedded in the landscape, heated by geothermal energy and flanked by a soft sandy beach. On the daybeds, there is room for slowness. Read, be silent, dream. Feet in the sand, a cool drink in hand. If you want, you can swim a lap in the pleasantly temperate water or simply let yourself drift.

DAS.GOLDBERG also remains true to its regional approach in culinary terms. In the morning, the day begins with bread from the hotel's own bakery, homemade spreads, cheese and honey from the surrounding area. In the evening, the kitchen interprets alpine products in a modern way and with sensitivity. The WALD.WIESE.WERTVOLLES concept stands for honest preparation, for ingredients that come from what grows or is produced around the hotel - meat from the Pongau region, wine with character. The food is served on the terrace with a view over the valley. The location speaks for itself.

DAS.GOLDBERG needs no staging. It is a place for real breaks, for long summer days, for peace and quiet without standing still. Those who stay here don't just stay - they arrive.
