Your nature hotel at the foot of the Leogang Mountains

A hotel with a 400-year 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.

A passion for hospitality

In 1960 the foundation stone was laid for the hotel in its current form: At that time, the parents of senior boss Rupert Schmuck rented two rooms at the Forsthof for the first time. In 1980, Rupert Schmuck and his wife Rosmarie took over the farm, continued renting out rooms and expanded the house. Meanwhile, son Christoph, the fifth generation of the Schmucks at the Forsthof, has taken over the hotel.

Hotel director and hostess Bianka Bitter has been supporting Christoph and his wife Christina in all operative tasks since the beginning of 2020 and acts as a link between the Schmuck family and the Forsthofgut guests. Together with the Schmuck family with their two daughters, Charlotte and Lena, and the entire Forsthofgut team, Mrs. Bitter strives every day to make the Forsthofgut a special holiday resort.

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.

We have the ambition to make the Forsthofgut a place that is more than just a hotel. That is more than just a room or a table in a restaurant. And we believe that the Forsthofgut has become such a place. With its own power and aura.

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.

Eat healthy & tasty

Our new kitchen philosophy is based on the highest quality and consciously minimizes: the best from seven Alpine countries is served in the ForsthofgutCUISINE, "brutally local" with its own seal of quality or delicious vegan dishes. In addition, we have created favorite places where you can enjoy these fine dishes: for example, our own delicacies market, a fine dining restaurant where our top chef cooks à la carte or a specialty restaurant for Austrian cuisine. Bon appetit!

Forsthofgut cuisine philosophy

You are what you eat.

There is a very conscious reduction in our new cuisine philosphy: three cuisine varieties which accompany you through the day.

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.

Forsthofgut for home
