Servus at the new Berghotel Schmittenhöhe

The Berghotel is a summit hotel: accessible exclusively by GONDELBAHN to the Schmittenhöhe (2,000m).

The traditional hotel has been majestically enthroned above the town and Lake Zell since 1874.
What awaits you up there? A breathtaking mountain landscape with a 360° view, a new feeling and experience of sun and light on your skin and mind, fresh and pollen-free air for your lungs after the last gondola has left the mountain, sheer endless peace and quiet, serenity for deep relaxation on a special vacation!
Winter is all about outdoor sports, the interplay of fun and enjoyment of sport and socializing. A combination of wellness in every form, from sport to sauna, from culinary delights to wine...! And don't forget: the Berghotel Schmittenhöhe is not located at the ski lift but above the ski lifts. Who is the first on the mountain?
Welcome to your personal time-out, to sharpen your senses!

Or in other words:
Where the view entices you to fly high!

In any case, you have the best first-row view of the Berchtesgaden Alps with the Watzmann and the Hochkönig, the Dachstein in the Niedere Tauern, the Hohe Tauern with the Grossglockner and the Kitzsteinhorn right in front of your nose, the Zillertal Alps, the Wilder Kaiser and the Leoganger Steinberge complete the 360° view.

A panorama that even Sissi, Empress of Austria, could not resist.

Enjoy the view at the top and feel the warm hospitality.
Vacations, summer retreats and winter panoramas can be so easy.

Gondolas instead of driving, because the car is on vacation

The drive up to the hotel promises to be something special. And the summer rides with ascent and descent are included in the hotel room price.

With the gondola lift you literally float up to the Berghotel Schmittenhöhe.
Your car/motorbike stays in the valley in a parking space reserved in advance. Or even better, you can arrive by train, because you don't actually need your car.
