From busy days to being together - A family winter escape

29.01.2026
from Daniela Kontopirakis

A pause from everyday life, where schedules fade into the background and being together takes center stage. Gentle winter moments, genuine closeness, and memories that linger long after the days have passed.

Morning calm

The morning begins together. Voices at the breakfast table. Warm cups in small and large hands. The frost glistens outside, inside there is that special calm that arises when no one is planning anything but everyone is there. The day lies open before us. Full of possibilities.

In winter, time together becomes more tangible. Footsteps in the snow. Laughter in between. Small breaks that come naturally. It's not about getting everything done. It's about experiencing things together. Without haste. Without pressure. Just us. Just winter. Together.

Hochsteinalm: snowy forest exploration.

Strengthened and warmly dressed, we head to the Hochsteinalm. The hike through the snowy winter forest takes about an hour and never feels long. There are too many little discoveries along the way. Footprints in the snow, the crunching under your shoes, curious glances across the wintry landscape. At the top, the animals are waiting. Alpacas, goats, sheep, donkeys and pigs can be fed and stroked. Closeness comes naturally. Sometimes it's the small things that bring the most joy.

Refueling with local flavours.

After a morning in the fresh air, the Poststube 1327 invites you to lunch. Regional specialities with a modern twist, a cosy atmosphere, plenty of room for conversation and a short break. A place to arrive and gather new energy - the perfect place to recharge and reflect on the morning's adventures.

Rest. Relax. Recharge.

A little peace and quiet is simply a must at lunchtime. In the Rooftop BergSPA, it happens all by itself. Warm water, gentle sounds, perhaps a short nap, while outside the cold and clarity set the tone. Your body relaxes, your breathing calms, your mind clears. Just the right moment to recharge your batteries. Ready for the next adventure.

Creative winter adventures.

In the afternoon, it's off to Gmunden for some indoor ice skating. Skates are easy to hire and the first laps are done. You hold on tight, laugh at the wobbly steps and enjoy the movement. It's not about perfection - it's about the shared experience. Laughter. Excitement. Pure joy.

Dinner time - Gmunden, but with a slice of Italy, please.

After an eventful day, the Hacklpizza in Gmunden awaits. Pizza, pasta and small delicacies ensure that everyone will find something to their liking. Back at the hotel, you can reflect on the day, talk about your favourite moments and quietly make plans for tomorrow. There is so much more to explore.

Winter magic for families.

Winter time that lasts. From shared paths, warm breaks and moments that connect. For families who don't plan winter, but experience it - together, at their own pace.
