Holiday in Gastein Valley
Mountains, nature, thermal spas, and countless possibilities
The Gastein Valley in SalzburgerLand combines impressive mountain scenery, thermal water, a wide range of leisure activities and real nature experiences in every season. Our Zittrauerhof is located on the valley floor between Bad Hofgastein and Bad Gastein, making it an ideal starting point for your holiday in one of Austria’s most diverse vacation regions.
From the farm, hiking and walking trails lead straight out into nature, while mountain lifts, thermal spas, winter sports areas and many excursion destinations are quick to reach. This makes a farm holiday in Bad Hofgastein easy to combine with an active break, family time, wellness and relaxation.
Experience nature
In spring, summer and autumn, the Gastein Valley shows its especially varied side. Hiking trails lead directly from the Zittrauerhof towards Bad Hofgastein, Bad Gastein and Angertal, while the mountain lifts offer a convenient way into the Gastein mountains.
Cycling, excursions and relaxed hours in nature are also part of a summer holiday in Bad Hofgastein. A swimming lake is only about 500 meters from the farm – ideal for cooling off on warm holiday days.
Winter holiday in the mountains
When snow covers the mountains and meadows, the Gastein Valley becomes a versatile winter sports area. The valley station of the Schlossalmbahn is only about 2.5 km from the Zittrauerhof, and you can reach other ski areas by bus or car in just a few minutes.
In addition to skiing and snowboarding, Gastein offers opportunities for cross-country skiing, tobogganing and winter hiking. Walking and winter hiking trails even lead directly from the farm towards Bad Hofgastein and Bad Gastein – ideal for a winter farm holiday in SalzburgerLand.
The Gasteiner Heilstollen
The Gastein Healing Gallery (Heilstollen) is one of the best-known highlights of the Gastein health region and is well known far beyond SalzburgerLand. It complements the Gastein Valley’s wide range of options focused on health, spa treatments and regeneration.
Guests who want to combine their stay in Bad Hofgastein with peace and relaxation will also find a special offer in the region focused on health and well-being.

The natural thermal water is inseparable from Gastein. The two thermal spas in the Gastein Valley offer soothing hours in every season – after a hike as well as after an active day on the ski slopes.
It’s the combination of a mountain holiday and thermal spa in Bad Hofgastein that makes the region so special: head out into nature during the day and then relax in the warm thermal water.
