ArchitectureHost Günter not only wanted to create beautiful living spaces, he also provided an "experience-oriented home". The focus is on spacious living, on the edge of the Natura 2000 conservation area. In order to build sustainably, no concrete and appropriate seals were deliberately used, but sophisticated building biology was used. Only regional companies and suppliers were engaged in the construction and furnishing, only that fits the philosophy of Ramenai. The huts are deliberately kept simple, natural, warm, cozy, soothing and not boring. Among other things, images and stories from previous forest farmers served as models. The result is huts that correspond to the tradition and life in the Bohemian Forest and that focus on the time of forest farmers and farmhands. The tree bed allows guests to sleep in the tree tops a few meters above the ground, with a view of the stars.

FoodThe Bohemian Forest Village stands for self-sufficiency, and all huts have equipped kitchens. Because of their black walls, they are referred to as the “Black Kuchl”, which previously existed in the houses and huts in the region. On arrival, the guests can look forward to a lovingly compiled “Waldler package” with all sorts of goodies for the first breakfast: homemade jams and muesli, organic spreads, honey from the beekeepers around the corner, fresh bread, eggs from farmers and fruit and vegetables in organic quality a good start in the middle of the forest. If you don't feel like cooking, there are several restaurants in the area with good traditional cuisine.

SocialRamenai only employs employees from the region with whom Günter has a very warm and friendly relationship. There is currently no assignment of tasks, so all employees take care of guests, nature and the office - so it never gets boring. It also supports regional companies and social institutions, such as a neighboring workshop for people with disabilities, who produce fireplaces and brooms.

EnvironmentThe electricity is generated by 100% hydropower, the waste is separated according to the Austrian standard, the water is cleaned by its own source and only organic cleaning agents are used. All products, from the lighter to the insulation of the hut, were produced or delivered within a radius of 80 kilometers.

Well-BeingThe feeling of well-being begins with the view from the window, the feeling of the soft forest floor, the listening of the birds, the crackling of the wood and the rustling of the forest. In the house itself, you can relax particularly well in your own panoramic sauna, with a clear view of the forest. No matter what time of year, there are numerous sports opportunities in Ramenai: cycling, climbing, discovery, hiking, walking, jogging and in winter cross-country skiing and hiking through the snow. All activities start right outside the hut door. Of course, excursions can also be undertaken, such as to the local fruit growers, to small idyllic villages, to Linz, Passau or Krumau and to the Lipno reservoir directly after the Czech border. In addition, the Hochficht ski area and the Alpenblick lookout tower are just a few kilometers away, providing a breathtaking view of the treetops.
