What makes the Farmhotel & Chalets Grosslehen so unique?

Our Grosslehen is a genuine Tyrolean farm with a long history. Animal welfare and locally sourced produce have always been particularly close to our hearts. 

Look forward to authentic farm experiences, excellent farm-to-table cuisine featuring regional produce, and an idyllic setting in the heart of nature.

Summer and winter in Grosslehen

Summer in Grosslehen is when Markus spends the whole day on the tractor, Annemarie chases wasps around the garden, and Laura doesn’t quite explain all the walks properly. 

Summer adventures

In winter, Martina lovingly decorates the farm; there’s mulled wine on the cosy terrace, and the ‘Weise Bläser’ band, led by Alex, play songs in the cottage garden.

Winter experiences

Our Grosslehen is wonderfully idyllic – in summer and winter alike. Every week, there’s a carefully curated programme of activities in Grosslehen and the surrounding area.

Weekly programme

Our Farming: People and Animals Living Together

Highland cattle graze in the pasture, whilst donkeys, Kunekune pigs and goats roam about: on our farm, we live alongside a wide variety of animal residents. 

We hold our deep connection to nature and the animals close to our hearts. And you can really feel that here.

Farm holidays

Have you ever stroked a donkey or seen Kunekune pigs up close? 

At our farm hotel, you and your family can get to know the animals on the farm and experience them up close. A real taste of farm life!

A tour of the farm with Markus

Markus, a farmer and manager of the Farmhotel & Chalets Grosslehen, gives a farm tour every week. These experiences are sure to be remembered for a long time to come! 

After all, “Live the farm with us” is our motto at the Farmhotel & Chalets Grosslehen.

A Taste of Farm Life

From Farm to Table

Our food comes straight from the farm. Our meat products are sourced from roe deer and Highland cattle reared on our own farm.

We source our fish, eggs and cheese from local partners whom we know personally and hold in high regard. The same goes for our coffee and honey.

We grow our own vegetables and herbs right here in our kitchen garden – less than 50 metres from the kitchen. Do feel free to come and explore!

Holidays with your dog

We love dogs – our Labrador, Ludwig, is of course part of the family. That’s why we’re delighted to welcome your four-legged friends too.

  • Dedicated rooms and chalets for guests with dogs
  • Welcome pack with a bowl, treats and a cosy blanket
  • Dedicated dog run on the farm
  • Dog-sitting service available at an additional cost
  • Overnight fee per dog per night

Please note: Only dogs weighing up to 5 kg are permitted in the restaurant, as we wish to be considerate of our other guests.

Q&A; Farm at the Farmhotel & Chalets Grosslehen
When does the farm tour take place?

Every Tuesday and Saturday.

Can I visit the animals even without a guided tour?

Yes, of course, any time. You’re welcome to collect food for the animals from us at reception. However, for the animals’ own good, we sometimes have to limit this so that they stay fit and healthy.

Which animals are used in the farm-to-table approach?

At the moment, our Highland cattle and the roe deer. We realise this may seem a little strange to some people. However, we place great importance on the circular economy, meat quality and animal welfare, as our animals truly lead a happy, peaceful life right up to the end.

How long has the farm been in existence?

The farm has been in existence since 1632 – animals have been kept at the Grosslehen Hof ever since. Our hotel therefore has its roots in agriculture.

Has the farm always been above the hotel?

No: The stable used to be exactly where our restaurant stands today. And the rooms above it served as a hayloft. It was only gradually that the 4-star hotel you’ll find here today came into being.
