In the land of Kaiserschmarrn and Wiener Schnitzel, culinary art plays a special role. In the Wachtelhof, guests are served Austrian fusion cuisine that allows them to rediscover childhood memories. Honest and unadulterated dishes are served here using high-quality, fresh ingredients – primarily from the region.
In summer and winter the chef seduces his guests with a multi-course menu. Breakfast and dinner can be taken in the hotel's delicacy restaurant or in the Zirbelstube, a rustic, very private séparée with space for 20-25 guests. The parlor exudes history and cosiness and is suitable for festive occasions.
A marvellous mountain backdrop and great views to the Dachstein – the Kaiblingalm is probably one of the most beautiful spots of all Styrian ski resorts. Easy to reach by the Alm 6er chairlift, one of Austria’s most modern and comfortable chairlifts: it is detachable, equipped with orange protection covers (“bubbles”), and has heated leather seats. Its base station is at 1,600 m, taking you up to an elevation of 1,950 m.
The 18-hole golf course is located in the heart of the Dachstein-Tauern region, between Schladming and Haus, at an altitude of 700 metres above sea level.
Bernhard Langer, one of the most famous and successful golf players, succeeded in transferring a touch of the courses of Florida to the Alpine region with this course. This course is one of the "Leading Golf Courses".

Die Familie Höflehner ist wohl eine der bekanntesten und geschichtsträchtigsten Gastgeber-Familien der Region Schladming-Dachstein. Seit 1957 verwöhnt die Familie ihre Gäste – damals in einer kleinen aber feinen Jausenstation mit 10 Zimmern – kulinarisch und mit viel Herzblut. Die erste Skiliftanlage der Familie Höflehner im Jahr 1958 war wohl der Grundstein für die weitere Entwicklung der Familienbetriebe. Heute betreibt Gerhard Höflehner mit seiner Frau Katrin nicht nur die Knapplhütte, sondern auch „Knappl´s Bergschlössl“, die Gumpenbar und das 4 Sterne Superior „Natur- und Wellnesshotel Höflehner“.
Eines ist heute wie damals noch gleich: Schon beim Reinkommen duftet es nach Kasnock´n und Kaiserschmarrn umrahmt von Livemusik an den Wochenenden ;-)
NEU: 250 m² große Panorama-Sonnenterrasse
