4. Sustainability and ecology

At the Holzhotel Forsthofalm, we prioritize sustainability in all areas. As the name suggests, our Holzhotel is built from glue- and metal-free wood, which reduces our heating costs by 85% and creates a very special atmosphere. Since our renovation in 2008, we have been committed to a thoroughly sustainable energy concept. With thermal solar panels and photovoltaics, we mostly cover our energy needs ourselves. The waste heat from our cooling systems is used to heat the pool, and a smart ventilation system further optimizes energy efficiency.

We also focus on efficiency in water consumption: showerheads and faucets minimize usage and operate in an eco-cycle. Our washing and cleaning machines are eco-certified and are supplemented by natural products like vinegar and citric acid.

Awards such as the Austrian Eco-Label and the EU Eco-Label confirm our sustainable efforts, and we continue to strive to reduce our ecological footprint as much as possible.
