Experience the fascinating Forestis – a wellness retreat that promises an unforgettable stay in total harmony with the breathtaking natural backdrop of the Dolomites. At an altitude of 1,800 meters, the surrounding landscapes offer a variety of adventures all year round, from forest bathing and hiking to skiing and snowshoeing. Floor-to-ceiling glass fronts in spartanly furnished rooms and suites bring the majestic mountain backdrop to the fore, surprising you with its beauty every day, while the excellent "forest cuisine" spoils your palate with creations straight from the forest. As a highlight, the spa welcomes you to spiritual tree ceremonies and the Celtic yoga variant Wyda, which you have never experienced before.
Contrary to the usual chalet chic, the rooms and suites at Forestis focus on Spartan simplicity, which brings the unique natural beauty to the fore. Light wood, neutral colors, and deep bathtubs made of dolomite stone create wonderful retreats that promote peace and relaxation, while huge windows with extraordinary views of the dramatic backdrop of the Dolomites inspire awe. The jewel of the house is the two-story penthouse suite with a private heated pool, a spruce wood sauna, and its own bar where you can mix your favorite drink to enjoy on one of two spectacular terraces before falling asleep under a sparkling starry sky at the window front.
The Forestis' deep connection to nature is also reflected in its fantastic cuisine, aptly named "forest cuisine." Many ingredients come from local farms, the hotel's own vegetable garden, or directly from the forest and are transformed into perfectly balanced meals. Choose between delicious tasting menus and vegan detox menus, which change daily, to experience the nutritious nature of the region with all your senses. In the elegant rooftop bar, you can enjoy unique cocktails that are even beneficial to your health thanks to the addition of Swiss stone pine, larch, or spruce. Your enjoyment is crowned by impressive panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and forests.
Admire the enchanting mountain panorama from the heated indoor-outdoor spring water pool or discover the unique spa, whose ceremonies, rituals, and treatments are designed to harness the healing properties and energies of local trees. Try your hand at Wyda, the Celtic version of yoga, or find your inner peace with Druid-inspired meditation. The hotel's ski-in/ski-out location gives you direct access to the Plose ski area in winter, while in summer you may even spot shy deer and ibex on guided hikes. Whether forest bathing, paragliding, or spectacular hot air balloon and dog sled rides – let yourself be enchanted by the magic of South Tyrolean nature.
With its innovative concept, the unique Forestis mountain hotel is entirely dedicated to the luxury of simplicity and harmony with nature. In the heart of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009, dramatic views of the rugged massif of the Geisler group and the lush spruce forests are your constant companions. The absence of any distractions in the form of decoration or art and the omnipresence of huge window fronts bring the impressive natural beauty into focus. Here, luxury lies in simplicity. In each of the minimalist rooms, you wake up every morning to a fascinating mountain backdrop; the exquisite Penthouse Suite also pampers you with a private heated pool, your own sauna, and dreamlike terraces, above which the starry night sky appears even closer and clearer.
