A sustainable holiday with children
Holidays together at the Thurnerhof in Saalbach
Nature conservation and sustainability have a big role to play in the Thurnerhof. We are aware of the fortuitousness and the subsequent responsibility of living in a region that enchants people from across the globe with its beauty, time and again. Crystal-clear mountain streams, lush Alpine meadows, secluded mountain peaks, deep woodlands – the Glemmtal valley is a place where you get to experience Alpine nature with all your senses. The concepts and working processes in our hotel are characterised by our own roots in agriculture, the love we have for where we live and a close connection to the natural cycle of the year. A keen sense for the nature all around us, being open to the new, enjoying a stay surrounded by lush mountain pastures – this is a sustainable holiday with children par excellence!
A sustainable summer holiday in Saalbach
Naturalness and mindful interaction with nature – in the 4-star Hotel Thurnerhof we lead by example and therefore can proudly present some of the environmental protection measures that have already been implemented:
- Heating facility which uses wood from the region (the heat captured is used for heating rooms, to provide hot water, for the ventilation system and for the pool)
- Water from our own mountain spring – four springs supply the entire hotel, with no pump needed due to the gradient
- Two E-charging stations for cars
- Milk and meat comes from the farm next door – Cousin Josef Kröll supplies the best produce fresh every day
- Organic ewes’ milk products from Vorderglemm farmers
- Part of the AMA GENUSS REGION businesses
- Attentive and conscious selection of suppliers, produce, decorative elements and continual improvements in work processes are a matter of course for us
