Sport and leisure time
With a mere 10-minutes’ walk you reach the Montiggl woods. There you can ramble, jog, do nordic walking, cycle, ride a horse, swim, or play tennis on the highest level.
In the centre of town, at a 10 minutes’ walk, you find grocery stores, a butcher, a baker, and some wine cellars.
In about one hour you can walk to the new Messner Mountain Museum on Castle Sigmundskron.
We are happy to organise your wine tasting, cellar guided tours, BBQ or „Törggele“ evenings, or whatever you like.
Summer
Walk from the Sonnenhof to the little Montiggl lake in 45 minutes. There you can swim wonderfully. Or enjoy the big Montiggl lake with swimming pool. The Kalterer See nearby is the ideal spot for those who love water sports.
