Surrounded by mountain nature in its most beautiful form, LaPosch celebrates Alpine Tyrolean tradition - in the architecture of the 16 chalets, lodges and villas, built from local woods, in the rustic massage parlor and in the tradition-conscious restaurant Das Walters. The latter stands for seasonal culinary delights made from regional products and international flavors, garnished with a large portion of love. Chef Manuel Lehne has been awarded two Gault Millau toques for his creative world of Alpine delights. Hut delicacies such as raclette, fondue and snack platters enchant guests anew every day. His secret passion? The patisserie with sweet treats! Breakfast in a bathrobe, dining on the terrace at sunset? If you wish, you can choose your favorite dish à la carte and be served in your own chalet.

Freedom is a word that is not only spoken but also lived in the Tannheimer Tal. In 2016, a spacious chalet village was created in the village of Schattwald, which complements typical Alpine traditions with modern accents and offers space to unwind. The sustainable wooden chalets were built in the middle of unspoiled nature, while a natural swimming pond in the garden provides the necessary freshness kick on warm days. Luxury in its most beautiful form awaits guests in the so called #achtzig restaurant, where Tyrolean specialties are on the menu. For the privacy factor, a breakfast basket with regional products is delivered to the chalet in the morning at your own pace. If you wish, you can also book the barbecue package and end the afternoon relaxing on your own terrace with a Weber® charcoal barbecue.
