A hotel that doesn't sit beside nature — it is part of it. Forest, water and mountains don't start somewhere outside. They're right there. Forsthofgut works less like a conventional hotel and more like its own small nature territory, grown over generations.

Our take
Why we love it
A natural swimming lake as the centrepiece of the spa — almost nowhere else in the Alps
Forest spa: saunas in the woods, pools inside and out, expansive and never crowded
Architecture of wood, stone and glass — open, warm, without alpine clichés

The Lake At The Heart Of It All
A natural swimming lake in the Alps
At the centre of Forsthofgut lies a natural bathing lake that changes with the seasons. In summer, guests swim beneath the mountains. In winter, steam rises from the warm water while snow settles on the surrounding landscape.
More than a feature, the lake has become a symbol of the hotel itself. It brings together wellness, nature and the outdoors in a way few Alpine resorts can offer.
Some hotels are built around a lobby. Forsthofgut is built around a lake.

From Farm To Forest
A hotel rooted in nature
Long before it became one of Austria's leading luxury resorts, Forsthofgut was a working farm. That connection to the land still shapes the experience today. Forests, meadows and mountains surround the property, while nature influences everything from the architecture and wellness areas to the food served on the table.
The hotel's origins are never far away. Even as Forsthofgut has grown, it has remained closely connected to the landscape that first gave it its identity.
Here, luxury feels less like an escape from nature and more like a way of living within it.

Location
Österreich
Leogang sits in the Salzburger Land at the foot of the Leoganger Steinberge — mountains and forest directly outside, without mass tourism at the hotel itself. Summer: hiking and mountain biking in one of Europe's premier bike regions, golf nearby. Winter: direct access to the Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn ski circuit.
