The majestic Rocky Mountains in Leogang on one side, the gently rolling slopes of the Asitz on the other. In between, forests, meadows, and streams. It's a playground for nature lovers, a paradise for all those who prefer to be outdoors every day and all year round: Leogang and its nature are made for active holidays in spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
Colourful leaves, golden sunlight and fresh mountain air. On autumn days, very early in the morning, nature shows its great magic: like a soft veil, the fog lies over the landscape, the golden sunlight finally drives away the dawn and makes the colourful nature and our Forsthofgut glow.

Well fortified through nature
Trail running is running away from crowded training routes, on varied trails, and above all: with a panoramic view. The Saalfelden-Leogang region is the ideal terrain for this sport and offers 21 well-thought-out routes for beginners, experts, and professionals.
The Schmuck family's personal tip for beginners is the "Ederbauern-Runde": It takes about 35 minutes to master 6.9 kilometers and 202 meters of altitude difference, starting at the Naturhotel. For experienced runners, the "Endless Flow Trail" is the right choice: a slightly undulating, 10-kilometre-long high-altitude trail that starts directly at the Asitz mountain station.
Are you an early riser? Perfect! Then take advantage of the morning: fresh air and wonderful silence to wake up, sports in the morning, a healthy lunch, then jump into the lake and enjoy time in the waldSPA in the afternoon.

Those who know the Forsthofgut, know: We are constantly on the lookout for new highlights. This time we have been inspired by the search for "happiness on earth" - and as the German saying goes, the greatest happiness can be found in the saddle of a horse. That's why, starting in autumn 2022, we will have a riding stable with an indoor riding arena at the Forsthofgut.

Before the first flakes fall, there is a very special atmosphere in the air, it is cold and the wind is not a breeze, but a snow wind. In keeping with this special feeling, the joyful anticipation of winter and, of course, skiing increases.
