Your farm holiday
The Unterhochstätt holiday farm was still a full-time agricultural business 60 years ago. Nowadays our organic farm is a sideline business. The farm has been run by our family for over 200 years and is one of the few entailed estates left in Tyrol.
The many different animals here on the farm are not only a source of holiday joy for our young guests, but also supply the hotel with high quality produce. The beef is exclusively our own, and some of the pork, eggs, cold meats and speck are also from our farm. We are particularly proud of our 30 head highland cattle herd, which you can admire here at our hotel!
Summer break up on the high pastures...
From the end of May til the beginning of September, the highland cattle spend summer up at the Unterhochstättalm, at Unterberg. A special highlight for our guests is the weekly trip up to the high pastures to visit them.
The summer culminates at the middle of September when the cattle are driven back down to the farm and the festivities that go along with that tradition.
Autumn is the time of birthing...
The autumn in Tyrol is impressive, not only due to the colourful forests. From the middle of September to the end of October our highlands are grazing in the fields surrounding the Unterhochstätt holiday farm. Here the calving season takes place and with a bit of luck one may be witness to this natural spectacle.
Happiness is...
on the back of a horse! Four haflinger horses and the two ponys "Snow White" and "Mona“ are waiting to be ridden, patted and cared for in their stable!
Happy as a pig in mud...
We also have pigs as pets here at Unterhochstätt holiday farm! And they can access outdoors too. Some would be jealous if they saw Mrs Sow and Mr Eber wallowing in the mud. And the Sunday roasting of one of the organically raised pigs by Chef Gabi is of course part of the program!
