Bees - so small and yet so important for our planet.
They are among the most important pollinators in the world and contribute to the preservation of wild and cultivated plants.

Learn everything about the life of the bee under expert guidance. Our beekeeper Roland will explain to you how the bee builds its combs and how the honey gets from the blossom to the jar. You will also learn which products can be made from honey. After the tour, you can taste some honey.

These tours are only available on request from June to October.

Bio Distillery

It was always the passion of Friedrich Steiner, to use products from the direct surroundings for the bio distillery Steiner. Since 2006 he is making distillates with highest bio quality.

You find exquisite quality fires and liqueurs, restored to health from fruits from a biological cultivation or wild collection in the bio quality distillery Steiner which are from our near surroundings.

Meanwhile we have an extensive assortment develop. 13 quality fires from fruit and 14 noble liqueurs from most exquisite fruits and special berries.

The distillates and liqueurs of Mr Steiner were repeatedly already awarded at the "Destillata" which the quality of the products underlines.

You are welcome to convince themselves of the distillates in the Bio Hotel Panorama

Leaderships take place in the Bio Hotel Panorama every Monday at 9.15 pm on reservation (German or Italian language).

Preserving. The old. Creating. The new.

Sonja and Andreas have been revitalising the old farm with its cultural history for several years. They now offer organic farm produce in a lovingly designed farm shop. These include seasonal fruit from the old orchard trees, stored vegetables, potatoes and refined products such as jams, syrups and dried fruit.

The farm shop is open twice a week from Easter to All Saints' Day. In the winter months by telephone arrangement.

From the plant to the jar - 100% handmade
Each of the products from Ausser Brugghof in Katharinaberg is truly unique, the result of pure craftsmanship and genuine passion. On the farm, young farmer Patrick and his girlfriend Jana personally look after every single plant - from the first seedling to the care and harvest. They do not use large machines and instead rely on careful manual labour. Processing is also carried out in small batches in order to maintain freshness and quality at the highest level. The berries are carefully selected: Only the best fruit makes it into the jars. With a fruit content of 70%, the fruit spreads have an intense flavour. To preserve the bright colour and full flavour, they always process the fruit as fresh as possible. The ingredients for the syrups also come directly from nature and the farm: elderflowers are collected in the wild, dandelion flowers are picked from the natural meadows and basil and mint leaves grow in the farm's own garden. The result: unique specialities with a genuine taste - homemade, natural and full of passion. Visit the Ausser Brugghof and let yourself be spoilt by the lovingly produced delicacies! Jana and Patrick look forward to introducing you to their world of flavours and delights!

Arriving at the end of the Pfossental Valley you get to farmstead Vorderkaser (1,693 m a.s.l). The farm, situated in the Texel Group Nature Park, consists of several buildings that were originally built in the 13th century. Today the family of Richard Kofler welcomes guests in the tavern Jägerrast offering typical South Tyrolean dishes as well as quality meat and self-made products of the alpine cheese dairy.

Good whisky takes time. The whisky is aged in underground bunkers from the Second World War. We are aiming for three variant qualities, because the maturation takes place in bourbon barrels from the U.S., Marsala barrels from Sicily and wine barrels from Alto Adige. Whisky fans around the world can look forward to tasting the PUNI fine single malts starting in 2015. They do not seek to be a copy of the Scottish original, but rather, wish to include the terroir of the Vinschgau Valley and Italy.

The Weberhof has been in the hands of distillers for many generations and is located in the centre of the small village of Galsaun, in the heart of the Vinschgau Valley. Meadows, a small vineyard, a chestnut grove and fishing rights belong to the Weberhof. Distilling and weaving, two old crafts that have been rediscovered and are practised with love and passion, are what make the Weberhof so special and unique.

The Oberniederhof farm with its 700 years is a historical heritage in Schnalstal Valley (1,500 m a.s.l.). There is more to Oberniederhof than just a vacation in a Tyrolean farm: The Tappeiner family offers its guests a wide range of organic farm products.

The Tappeiner family has specialised in breeding and keeping old breeds of farm animals that are worthy of protection or threatened with extinction. The Oberniederhof is a recognised Ark Farm and a member of the G.E.H. (Society for the Preservation of Domestic and Farm Animal Breeds Worth Protecting). At the same time, they provide insight into the history of these breeds and their current situation through vivid farm tours. Meats from special breeds give extra-tasty smoked salami and speck. In the farm shop you also find herbal teas and herbal salt produced with herbs growing on the farm.

Products: cheese, ricotta, butter, yoghurt, salami, speck, herbal teas, herbal salt
