Energy
A woodchip heating system provides heat, a new photovoltaic system supplies power. Both systems reduce CO₂ emissions measurably.
At the Hintersee, you can’t just ignore nature. That obliges us. We heat with wood chips from the region, source food from nearby farms, and have banned plastic bottles from the house. No big plan — just sound practice.
Our priorities
Water
Spring water from the area — no transport, no plastic. Reusable BWT bottles are available at the breakfast buffet. The house is a Bottle Free Zone.
Mobility
10 e-charging stations in the lockable bike room, e-car charging on site, e-mountain bike rental with Kästle and KTM in-house.
Regional
Ox beef from Hintersee, forest honey, free-range eggs, and fresh bread from Faistenau. Short distances, clear provenance.
Waste
Single-use plastic has no place in the house. Purchasing, kitchen, and housekeeping follow one principle: as little waste as possible.

Regional cuisine
Ox beef from a Hintersee farmer, honey from the nearby forest, eggs from free-range hens — the kitchen works with what the area provides. Seasonal produce, transparent origin, no long journey from field to plate.
Energy from the region
Wood chips from regional forestry heat the house. The new photovoltaic system also generates power on site. Together, this makes the operation much less dependent on fossil fuels.
Guests on holiday here should feel that we treat this place with care — not just talk about it.
