TREK?


Sun, sea


Healthy doesn’t have to
mean lettuce leaves –
think crisp mountain air

this location that means the activities are
vast, from trekking, Nordic walking and
water-sports (on nearby Lake Ferchensee),
to ice-skating and horse riding – and that’s
just the start. Inside this behemoth you can
do yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi, and you have a
choice of pools, including a rooop innity
pool (complete with Alpine views).
Spread over four oors is a mega spa that
caters to families and couples. Head to the
adults-only Badehaus Spa and book in for
a Signature Facial Complete with Dr Imke
Koenig, then cosy up in the relaxation
room with its open res – and those views.
Luckily, all that calorie-burning means
meals are 100% guilt-free! Choose from six
restaurants – including La Salle, with its
huge buet, and Kaminstüberl, which
specialises in fondue. For romance, reserve
a table at Michelin-starred Luce d’Oro – the
food is so exquisite that you’ll have to resist
the urge to Instagram every dish.
