Hermann Maier

The Dachstein is the Alps' first glacier seen from the east, and it is one of Styria's five most visited destinations. Even the ascent in the Dachstein gondola is an impressive adventure. Without lift pillar, it brings its passengers on a level of 2700 m, conquering about 1000 metres of difference in altitude in only eight minutes, passing sheer rock walls.

Forstau location, tradition and modern hospitality combine to create a harmonious holiday experience.

For some it is top comfort, for others a stylish interior or superlative sports facilities. We think: leisure is the greatest luxury of all. This heavenly state of being, threatened with extinction, was already considered the "sister of freedom" in the time of Aristotle. Freedom to organize your thoughts, to gain knowledge, to rise above the "small and small" of everyday life and to cultivate your own interpretation of a fulfilled life. Everything in the Sonnhof is geared towards this. It offers space to develop. Time to find yourself. Inspiration to grow. And fantastic framework conditions to enjoy in every conceivable form.

Here you can do EVERYTHING and have NOTHING to do. This is ensured by a cozy ambience with only 39 exclusive accommodations, a contemporary 4-star superior standard, an unbeatable location directly on the slopes of the Pongau mountains and a heartfelt personal "adults preferred" guest culture. Here you can revive freed from all constraints and experience the pure Austrian way of life. All year round except for April / May.
