Tourism in South Tyrol: certified sustainability.

We are super proud: We are among the first certified in South Tyrol!
The Weihrerhof was one of the first hotels in South Tyrol to be awarded the prestigious Südtirol Sustainability Label - Level 3! The label is based on international criteria recognized by the GSTC, which aim to provide a unified definition of sustainable tourism. Four areas are considered: management, socioeconomics, culture and ecology, so that accommodations, restaurants and destinations can show progress towards sustainability. Level 3 corresponds to the GSTC global standard, and we are proud to have received this recognition! Both small and large steps have been rewarded. However, our unique and unforgettable vacation feeling at the Weihrerhof remains intact, despite the recognition we have received. Because here we still focus on the relaxed atmosphere, delicious food and beautiful surroundings that we love, as well as our guests. We will continue to work hard to offer our guests an unforgettable vacation experience, with or without recognition ;)

Tales and moments, mysticism and magic

History or stories? Dream or reality? The boundaries between reality and fiction blur almost imperceptibly. The cuckoo murmurs, the pine whispers, the little brook gurgles. And they all tell stories of their experiences and fantasies. Around the Wolfsgrubner Lake.
