The highlight for pleasure-seekers. The Salzburger Land mountains are stunning year-round, but fall is truly special. Nature bursts into vibrant colors, the light is golden, and the views are breathtaking. The weather? Perfect and refreshing. Plus, Austrian cuisine shines at its best. Our fall is heaven on earth—recharge your energy and happiness before winter arrives. Nothing compares.
If you want to take on a sporting challenge in autumn, you shouldn’t miss out on the Höllwart’s Pilgrim Getaway.
The conditions for hikers are at their healthiest in the fall. What’s more, you can still let off steam to your heart’s content at all altitudes until October. This is especially true for the Sonnhof, because here you can enjoy easy to high alpine tours as well as completely different hiking experiences.
Herbie is our hiking shuttle. He will take you to the starting point of a particularly beautiful hike 5 times a week throughout the summer and fall. And he will also pick you up again. The tours range from easy to challenging, so there is something for everyone. Best of all: Herbie is free of charge for all guests of the Höllwart hotel family. Let’s go!
A bike gives you wings even in the alpine fall. No matter how fit you are or what your cycling preferences are. Because here in St. Johann Alpendorf, there’s nothing that two-wheeler fans can’t find. The best tour tips, rental equipment and a full picnic rucksack are already waiting for you.
In autumn, the conditions are ideal to fully enjoy golfing fun without any entry hurdles. On our own golf course just around the corner (8 km), you can train for free with no limits, get your license to play in just a few days and even play a round without a license. Advanced players benefit from top coaching and exciting challenges.
Autumn is perfect for unwinding by the crackling fireplace and curling up in comfort, especially after outdoor activities. Enjoy extended sauna sessions, relaxing treatments, daily yoga, curated reading, or cozy alpine vibes. With our inviting rooms, private spa, library, and bar, you have plenty of options for relaxation.
During harvest time, Austria is a culinary delight. Enjoy seasonal treats like pumpkin, chestnuts, wild mushrooms, cabbage strudel, game, and Martini goose. For indulgence, try poppy seed noodles or seasonal drinks like Salzburg’s “Herbstgold” beer and “Sturm.” Most of these delights are included with our Sonnhof cuisine.
In fall, traditions come alive with harvest feasts and celebrations. From late August to October, the “Salzburger Bauernherbst” features hundreds of events, offering a deep dive into Austrian culture. Enjoy folk festivals, colorful rituals like the Almabtrieb, and hands-on experiences such as cooking classes, yodeling workshops, and arts and crafts. Traditional costumes are also in vogue, available for you to explore and wear.
Autumn’s tranquility is perfect for slowing down and reflecting, especially in November. Enjoy the solitude of the mountains and immerse yourself in nature for contemplation and personal growth. Our yoga team offers an expanded program and mini-workshops for a touch of “selfness de luxe” this month.
By the way: It’s not only in autumn that you can design your stay at the Sonnhof exactly the way you like it. Our “vacation by design” concept ensures this with lovingly curated recommendations and exclusive offers. Our experience cloud together with our “Bonbon” menu offers you plenty to turn your vacation dreams into a dream vacation.
