A quaint and cosy spa hotel 30 minutes from Salzburg, nestled amongst an Austrian forest - includes breakfast, dinner, spa perks and more
  • Austrian escape: Surrounded by mountains, crystal clear lakes and rolling meadows, Naturhotel Fischerwirt is the perfect escape into nature. Breathtaking views are coupled with good old-fashioned hospitality, cosy rooms and excellent access to hiking trails to explore – if you’re in need of some time in the wilds, this is certainly the most comfortable place to do it.

  • Spa in the trees: One of the highlights of the hotel is certainly the forest spa, a quiet retreat amongst the trees where guests can commune with nature while indulging in massages and body treatments. Relax further with a trip to the various saunas on offer: a traditional Finnish sauna, a fragrant herbal sauna scented with mountain herbs, and a modern infrared sauna. There's even a heated outdoor infinity pool for floating away your troubles in.

  • Live well, eat well: The focus on wellbeing continues in the hotel’s gastronomic restaurant, which takes products from around the region to showcase Salzburgerland’s delicious alpine-influenced cuisine. Breakfasts are free from packaging, venison comes from the nearby Rannberg mountains, fish from the Hintersee and Fuschlsee lakes, and mushrooms, berries and herbs are picked in the surrounding forests.

How to get there

From Salzburg Airport it’s about 35 minutes’ drive to the hotel, which is situated on a high plateau of the Osterhorn mountain range.

Good to know

Please note, only those aged 14 years or older have access to the SPA & infinity pool.

Location and what's nearby

static map

Hinterseestraße 101, 5324 Faistenau, Austria

A mere 20 kilometres from the city of Salzburg, Faistenau is situated amongst beautiful countryside in the foothills of the Alps, high up on a mountain plateau. The scenery – all lush meadows, shallow-sided valleys and craggy ridges, is a tonic to the stresses of daily life, and is best explored on hikes and bike rides. It’s a year-round destination: close to slopes for skiing, horse-drawn sleigh rides and snowshoeing in the winter season, while during late spring, summer and autumn the lakes of the Salzkammergut provide cooling breezes and beautiful vistas, and there is a climbing park, gorges, folk festivals and walking trails to explore. Plus, the musical city of Salzburg, with its historical Old Town, dreamy palaces and mementos of Mozart, is less than half an hour away.
