Forsthofalm wins the Aktiv Hotel Award for Yoga

As part of FIBO—the world’s largest trade fair for fitness, wellness, and health in Cologne—the renowned travel portal meintophotel.de honored Europe’s best activity hotels on April 10, 2025. The award went to us—Forsthofalm—for our holistic yoga offering in the mountains that unites body, mind, and soul. Markus Widauer accepted the award on behalf of our entire team—with shining eyes and a proud heart.

The jury, among other things, praised the various yoga spaces in the hotel, from the modern room on the rooftop terrace to the outdoor options with views into nature. Our Mountain-Life program includes several yoga sessions daily, guaranteed to take place—no minimum number of participants required.

Two yoga instructors teach Yin Yoga, Aerial Yoga, Sivananda, Vinyasa, and Restorative Yoga. Additionally, there are several retreats throughout the year with different focuses. We are very happy about the recognition.

What makes our yoga program at Forsthofalm so special? It is the combination of professional guidance, a breathtaking location at 1,050 meters altitude, and the deep connection with the Alpine nature surrounding the wood hotel in Leogang.

Our yoga spaces in the Alps are as diverse as our guests:

The modern yoga room on the rooftop terrace—flooded with light, featuring panoramic views of the Leoganger Steinberge.

The DOME in the garden—a round retreat for your practice, protected and yet set in the midst of nature.

Yoga beneath open skies—with bare feet in the grass, the sky above you, and the earth below you.

Inspiring yoga retreats are regularly held at Forsthofalm in the Salzburg Alps—with different focuses such as mindfulness, inner balance, and energy work, accompanied by experienced experts. These breaks give you space to reorient, recharge, and truly arrive within yourself—perfect for a yoga break with a wellness factor.

Forsthofalm itself is a place of strength. Built from moon wood, sustainably managed, and nestled in the mountains of Leogang, it is the perfect place for your personal journey. The feeling of freedom, nature, and security is not only tangible here—it’s everywhere. You sleep in rooms made from stone pine, enjoy regional organic cuisine at Kukka Restaurant, relax in the Sky Spa with a panoramic sauna, and start directly from the hotel for hikes or e-bike tours.

Do you want to dive into the clear mountain air yourself, let your gaze wander across the peaks, and roll out your yoga mat at the wellness hotel Forsthofalm? Then secure your spot at the next yoga retreat in Austria or simply let our daily yoga sessions with a mountain view drift you away—we look forward to seeing you!
