Gluten-free enjoyment in beautiful Austria. Whether in spring, summer or autumn you can enjoy a restful vacation in this beautiful, small, but very cozy accomodation.
What is there to do throughout the year?
Different periods are fun to visit. In the low season, it is also recommended if you are looking for tranquility combined with pleasant weather. Ideal for a nice quiet rest, hiking, biking or quietly reading a book.
June is also a very nice month to visit it. Because of the numerous flowers, flower walks are also organized.
September is interesting because of the Bauernherbst. At the Bauernherbst there are many harvest festivals and activities organized for locals but also for guests! The weather is still beautiful and the heat is still hanging in the mountains and lakes. So you don’t have to worry if the weather is pleasant enough.
And in October here you have the beautiful coloring of the tree leaves, their own “Indian Sommer,” just one more boost of sunshine
getting in before winter sets in again. Most huts are
closed by then, though. Or perhaps skiing in the first weeks of
December, also possible and interesting.
