Family time at the Thurnerhof | Autumn holiday in the mountains in Austria

At the Thurnerhof you get to enjoy some family time in a unique way. After all, it is precisely in this little corner of the earth that you get to enjoy lying in beds as soft as fluffy clouds, the big adventure play area, experience autumn up close, enjoy fresh milk and explore the exciting nearby mountain summits. For all ages.

Arrive and stay for a while. Nestling amid the breath-taking mountains and surrounded by mysterious woodland sections, the Hotel Thurnerhof is situated in the pure natural surroundings of the Glemmtal valley. And on its own little mountain, high above the rooftops of Saalbach. And is precisely up there that this hotel which has been going for generations inspires, meeting all your needs for an autumn holiday in the mountains in Austria. Particularly the needs of families.

And this is what both your Hosts Erika and Hermann Kröll cherish. After all, as young parents, they know what families need. They live their philosophy and adore being with all their guests - young and old. You might even come across Erika gathering plump chestnuts with her children, or baking proper farmhouse bread for you to enjoy, and parents head with Hermann to take a look at the variety-filled wine store, or share some insider sports tips during lovely chats. That too is part of the Thurnerhof's natural concept. Cosy up in your bathing robe, identify the autumn flowers, experience the Thurnerhof adventure playground, enjoy a swim in the Infinity pool and sample mountain spring water from our own source. Erika and Hermann have two sons together, Moritz who is 7 years old and Xaver who is 3, and they have created a place where children feel happy and where parents can come to and want to stay for a while.

Time for yourself and for the family

Where else can children enjoy a 600 m2 adventure play area set in the middle of natural surroundings, listen to the roar of stags, run across the Thurnerhof's pastures, count sheep and climb, slide and run about. While parents sit on the terrace beneath the maple tree, sampling some home-made plum cake, as they keep an eye on their children playing. Where else do children get to gobble up pumpkin gnocchi and enjoy a children's menu which has meals to suit every tummy. While parents are impressed by the culinary sophistication, red wine recommended by Hermann and autumn dishes created by our Head Chef, including beetroot dumplings served with Gorgonzola. Where else can children do children get to out-swim grandma and grandpa in an Infinity pool and scoff a huge ball of ice cream with their aunt and uncle. While parents unpack their sports kit and explore the mountain summits. Where else can children go with Hermann to visit the dairy cows cared for by neighbour and cousin Josef, watch them being milked and then slurp the fresh milk next morning. While mum reads a book, breathes in the invigorating autumn air and sips a tea by Bioteaque, and while dad treats himself to a sauna infusion to ease out his calves. And where else can children and parents just enjoy being a family for once.
