Our nature hotel

400 years of history

The history of the Forsthofgut dates back 400 years: in 1617, of course, the Forsthof was not a hotel, but a simple forestry business and farm. With a lot of finesse, vision and creativity, we have succeeded in transforming this simple house into one of the leading hotels in the Salzburger Land. However, our rural roots always accompany us: "Only those who know their roots can create a future in the present," says host Christoph Schmuck.

Family, tradition and nature

Our philosophy

We grew up on our parents' farms in close harmony to nature. Now we celebrate and experience this harmony with nature together in the Forsthofgut. We are inspired by the idea of combining the power of our beautiful nature with the amenities of a cosmopolitan luxury hotel. We are not interested in higher, further or faster.  Rather, we are concerned with dealing with traditions, with consciously experiencing special moments.

We are convinced that everything we do should be done consciously. And we also believe that we should enrich each other. For example, with a little smile that we give as a present, in the form of a good conversation or simply by daring to try something new. Everyone has a reason to get up every morning. An inner drive, a passion. Our reason for getting up every day is our desire to enhance the lives of those around us.

Top Location

A hotel directly in the nature paradise Leogang

Our Nature Hotel Forsthofgut is located at the edge of charming Leogang and directly on the slopes of the Asitz. Surrounded by meadows and forests that have characterized our nature hotel for centuries, the hotel is an ideal starting point for athletic exploration tours. In winter, the ski slope runs right past the hotel and the Asitz gondola is only 200 meters away. In summer, our flowering, 30,000 m² large garden with organic bathing pond and relaxation islands is inviting.

A responsibility for the gift of nature

Dealing responsibly with our nature is a matter of course and the most important principle for us. This is what makes our Forsthofgut special - we create moments of happiness in harmony with nature: that is why Forsthofgut has a game preserve and its own miniGUT children's farm, consistent regional cuisine, the unique natural concept in the waldSPA or our numerous activities for everyone who is as enthusiastic about being outdoors as we are.

A love of style

At our Nature Hotel Forsthofgut, attention to detail counts: we are constantly working with experts on design and architecture. We want to translate the impressive nature, the rural charm and old traditions into modern zeitgeist. To give our house this very personal and special style, we use natural materials such as old wood, loden, fine leather or stone.
