Sustainability at Holzleiten: A feeling, not just a label.
Holistic. Natural. Holzleiten.
At Holzleiten, our commitment to the planet is something you can feel in every detail. As a premier eco-friendly hotel, we define sustainability through a holistic lens. It is our promise of uncompromising quality and authentic living in balance with nature. From our organic cuisine to our mindful spa, this eco-conscious philosophy is the heart of everything we do here on the sunny Mieming Plateau in Tirol.
Regional Roots & Sustainable Practices
From our roots as the “Sattelklause” inn to the Holzleiten Nature & Spa Resort, and now finally the Holzleiten Nature Hideaway – our name and our promise have grown with us. Caring for the environment has been part of our DNA for decades. By officially becoming a certified eco-friendly destination in the heart of Obsteig, we have formalized our deepest commitments: serving only the finest organic produce, using biodegradable cleaning products, and sourcing as much as possible from local organic farmers.
Sustainability isn’t just a business strategy for us; it has been a core value of our family’s personal life for years. Bringing these values into the hotel was simply the natural next step. We invite you to discover a new side of organic living: here in Tirol, “organic” is fresh, modern, and vibrant. It is a forward-thinking way to experience the mountains.

Healthy Atmosphere
Welcome drink: Upon arrival, we greet you with our signature organic elderflower drink – served refreshingly cold in the summer and comforting and warm during the winter months.
Sensory delights: We pamper your senses with natural aromas throughout the hotel: from the inviting scent of daily fresh-baked bread and the natural essence of larch wood to our exclusive Holzleiten signature fragrance.
A breath of fresh air: To ensure a healthy environment for all our guests, the entire hotel is a non-smoking zone. For those who wish to smoke, designated areas are available on the balconies and in our outdoor smoking lounge on the terrace.
Regional & Seasonal
The culinary experience is the heart of Holzleiten, reflecting our deep connection to the region. Our kitchen relies exclusively on seasonal, certified organic ingredients sourced directly from local farmers in Obsteig to ensure the shortest possible transport routes.
We take great pride in our partnerships with local producers like the Leonhard Gapp and Andreas Riser farms, who supply us with everything from premium organic meats and dairy to fresh eggs and grains.
To guarantee authentic taste, everything is prepared in-house from scratch. From daily baked bread and delicate sauces to traditional strudels, we never use ready-made products. This artisanal approach ensures that every meal reflects our uncompromising standards of quality and purity.


Natur Spa with Organic Cosmetics
At the Holzleiten NaturSpa, we exclusively use a curated selection of top-quality organic products from Tirol and South Tyrol – from revitalizing massage oils and face creams to gentle exfoliants. Our signature in-house natural cosmetics line, Alpenlarch, harnesses the restorative power of the larch to nourish your skin naturally.
Eco-Friendly Operations
Naturally clean: To ensure a healthy environment, we clean exclusively with 100% biodegradable organic agents from the pioneering Vorarlberg company, Uni Sapon. These natural products are as effective as they are gentle on the planet.
Sustainable energy: Our hotel harnesses the power of nature every day through solar panels and geothermal energy. Additionally, our green electricity is sourced from 100% Tirolean hydropower, ensuring a carbon-neutral and environmentally friendly stay.


Sustainable Mobility
Public transport: With a bus stop located directly outside our front door, exploring the region is effortless. The local bus is free of charge, offering unlimited travel between Nassereith and Innsbruck. This ensures maximum mobility and a completely stress-free way to discover the surrounding beauty.
Complimentary shuttle service: To support your eco-friendly journey, we provide a free shuttle service from the nearby railway stations of Mötz, Telfs-Pfaffenhofen, and Ötztal-Bahnhof. Simply let us know your arrival time, and we will take care of the rest.
