ArchitectureThe whole property is under ensemble and partly under monument protection, which is why the Tauber family attaches great importance to sustainability in the construction. Each room has been individually decorated with handmade spruce or larch furniture. The suites appear in solid wood from the South Tyrolean stone pine. In every room there is furniture made by the carpenter, natural fabrics, health mattresses and bedding made from the vegetable fiber Kapok. The suites often do not offer WiFi due to the reduced-radiation construction. The Saalewirt works exclusively with small craft and family businesses from the area and mostly local materials such as South Tyrolean wood are used. In the outdoor area, attention is also paid to nature, and therefore no trees are felled.

FoodCooking is done with fresh, high quality and natural ingredients. Much is homemade every day and comes from our own farm, such as veal. Fruit like apples and plums from the home garden like to land on the breakfast table next to eggs from happy chickens, farm butter from the neighbors or homemade jam. The dinner often contains wild plants such as spruce sprouts, dandelions, nettles or meadow flowers from your own garden. Of course, South Tyrolean bacon and cheese should never be missing. Specialties in the Saalewirt are: back steak from the milk veal from their own keeping with homemade potato croquettes and root vegetables, goat cheese roasted in spruce honey on a salad with wild herbs, homemade Schlutzkrapfen with young nettle filling, parmesan and butter. Vegetarian dishes are offered daily in the half board menu and on the menu, vegan dishes are available on request.

SocialEmployees are given continuous working hours and / or a 5-day week, and they can also take vacation during the season. Activities as a team are particularly important to the Taubers. The employees' individual needs and diets are always taken into account. They also regularly receive credit for massages and spa. The Taubers cover the costs for work-friendly clothing such as barefoot shoes and support the employees through further training and various courses. The entire Saalewirt volunteers every year at a Bene fi z event. In summer, locals can take part in an outdoor yoga event at the swimming pond for a voluntary donation. South Tyrolean animal projects and families in need are also supported.

EnvironmentSustainability is implemented holistically: in the kitchen when shopping, glass instead of plastic, decoration made of natural materials, use of biological cleaning agents, ecological swimming pond without chemicals, waste separation and avoidance of packaged food. There is also a note on the conscious use of hand and sauna towels. The owner, Mr. Tauber, tries to make the purchase as mileage-saving as possible and therefore buys from the bakery and butcher in the village as well as the nearby farms.

Well-BeingGuests can choose from a range of natural spas, health-promoting massages and holistic facials with bio-certified natural cosmetics. There is also an ecological natural swimming pond, an organic herbal sauna, a steam bath and a Finnish sauna with various infusions. Magdalena Tauber from the host family holds four yoga classes a week. The Saalewirt is used for snapping, meaning that various cold water applications take place. Together you go into the forest to feel it and to walk barefoot on a path in special places. In addition to guided alpine hikes, ski tours or snow hikes are also offered in winter. E-bikes can be borrowed and tried out free of charge.
