INSPIRATION FROM AROUND THE WORLD FOR AN AESTHETIC AND MEANINGFUL LIFESTYLE
How do you capture the essence of a place? One way to do it is through language. Learning basic words and phrases doesn’t just show respect, it also helps you to understand the people and their region a little better. It’s particularly interesting in South Tyrol, where melodic Italian meets rustic Tyrolean, resulting in as many dialects as there are valleys.
The Alto Hotel Group not only owns fantastic hotels in South Tyrol, it also runs a brand for mindful experiences. With arise, body and mind are brought to new heights. Yoga and sound baths ensure personal growth. The stylish course locations in Bolzano and Lana are all'altezza and provide the perfect setting to shine.
Paradisiacal film evenings with Fellini, concerts with young talents in the moonlight, talks with inspiring artists or calming tea ceremonies - the events at the Alto Hotel Group locations provide inspiration, mindfulness and good vibes!
When a building is realised that deviates from what is otherwise customary in a village, it may initially be irritating. The Cantina Tramin in South Tyrol was no different, but the expressive building by architect Werner Tscholl is now even celebrated as a landmark of Tramin.
The OLM Nature Escape is definitely a building with a recognisable character. How did it come about to plan a round building, what challenges are associated with the 360° angle and why is the shape also a symbol of sustainability? We spoke to architect Andreas Gruber about his first hospitality project, which has been thoroughly thought through!
It would actually be more appropriate to call Willi Stürz a master miner than a master cellarer, as he doesn't store his most valuable wine in the cellar, but in the mountain tunnel. This wine was even awarded 100 Parker points in 2019. A portrait of the exceptional Epokale from the Cantina Tramin - a bottle that has made history in South Tyrol.
Eating, chatting, being together - it doesn't take much for a successful meal. The houses of the Alto Group in South Tyrol show how it's done. They are places that tell stories and create stories. Places with charm that are simply there without pushing themselves to the fore. Places where culinary delights are celebrated together. Buon appetito!
A new chapter is being opened at the Hofergut in the picturesque Pustertal Valley in South Tyrol. From now on, you can stay here in a modern ambience in a historical setting. Sounds like a contradiction? Not at all! The listed walls have been carefully brought up to date and now shine in new old splendour!
Between the forest and the orchard is the perfect place at the Apfelhotel to unwind, and there’s now a new Yoga- and movement room to do the same. The natural shades in the light-filled space ground you, the wood provides strength and the floaty curtains allow negative thoughts to be carried away on the wind. In addition to yoga or tabata sessions, meditation is another popular option with chanting, singing bowls and harmonium. Would you like a taster of what to expect? Yoga teacher Silvia takes us on an enlightening voyage through our bodies.
