Primeval Forest Hikes, Gold Panning Sites and Vultures
Those who check in for a summer holiday at ****Hotel Alpina in Rauris book spectacular nature experiences at the same time
295 km of marked hiking trails and alpine routes. A gold panning site, a primeval forest and a variety of magnificent mountain lodges practically on the hotel’s doorstep. The Sonnblick Glacier just a stone’s throw away. In Raurisertal, the keyword is: active pursuits. And boredom is a foreign concept. Because here, Mother Nature offers her guests an entertainment programme of the highest calibre.
Yet relaxation is not neglected. Family Prommegger personally ensures this at their ****Hotel Alpina. With genuine alpine charm and a freshly renovated outdoor area, the hotel opens for the summer season in May. ****Hotel Alpina is located in the centre of Rauris. In plain terms, this means: the mountains are not far away here. More precisely, the charming village is virtually surrounded by imposing peaks and unspoilt nature. Not far away, in Kolm-Saigurn at the foot of the Pinzgau Goldberg Group, mountain enthusiasts make pilgrimages to the Sonnblick or bask in the sunshine whilst enjoying regional delicacies at one of the traditional inns on site. Up here, one feels transported back to an earlier time. And the silence is the first step towards a restorative summer holiday. As a couple, one enjoys the togetherness. For families with younger guests, a little more “action” is needed. And that too can be found in the beautiful Valley of Springs: “When gold panning, it’s not only the little stones that sparkle, but always the children’s eyes as well,” says the master of Hotel Alpina, Thomas Prommegger. The Rauris nature experience does not end after such a day in the fresh air, even inside the hotel. The owners put much heart into their establishment, renovating, refining and repeatedly surprising their long-standing guests with this unforgettable attention to detail. With themed rooms such as the Primeval Spring, Gold or Primeval Forest rooms, as well as the exclusive wellness suite with its own infrared cabin and views of the breathtaking panorama, the Prommegger family brings the diversity of Raurisertal into the accommodation itself.
