What a weekend at the Tannerhof can do for you
Those traveling to the Upper Bavarian mountains for two or three nights are usually not looking for a complete life overhaul, but simply a place where body and mind can noticeably catch their breath. At the Tannerhof nature hotel, you can see how much relief just a few days can bring when sensory input is reduced and your gaze can wander freely over the Leitzach Valley. You can use our last-minute special to arrange a spontaneous getaway or plan a weekend in advance throughout the year.
Pausing and arriving at your own rhythm
A short stay at the Tannerhof provides space for immediate regeneration, without the day being dictated by schedules or leisure stress. Hiking trails begin right at our doorstep, leading through cool mountain forests up to the alpine meadows below the Wendelstein. After two hours in the fresh alpine air, deceleration sets in almost by itself. It is not about athletic peak performance here, but about mindful walking, feeling your own steps, and arriving in the warm, unhurried rhythm of our house.
- Fresh alpine air and mountain hiking right from the doorstep with no travel required
- Complimentary access to all spa areas, from the BadeHarpfe to the heated natural pool
- Culinary catering with fresh, regional organic cuisine on a 3/4-board basis
- Digital detox through the conscious absence of televisions in the rooms
After just two nights, you will feel far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Your mind clears, and your breathing deepens. The special value of such a weekend lies in the soothing respite it provides, without needing to replace a multi-week health program.
The Tannerhof Spa: Relaxation in the BadeHarpfe and the natural pool
Those arriving for a long weekend at the Tannerhof nature hotel often feel the physical relief after just a few steps. All spa facilities are available to guests at no extra charge from the first night. Located at the heart of the grounds, the BadeHarpfe, designed by architect Florian Nagler, blends seamlessly into the alpine landscape. The structure draws on the traditional form of Upper Bavarian hay racks, combining clear wooden construction with space for gentle movement and silence. In addition to a panoramic relaxation room and a Finnish sauna, you will find light-filled areas for endurance and strength training that open up views deep into the Leitzach Valley.
- BadeHarpfe: Transparent timber architecture featuring a Finnish sauna, panoramic relaxation room, and fitness area
- 25-meter outdoor natural pool: Heated from April to October, biologically filtered, and offering an unobstructed view of the Wendelstein mountain
- Historic sauna hut: Originally built in 1936 and crafted from rustic Kelo wood
- Indoor pool: A dedicated indoor swimming pool for all-weather swimming in a tranquil atmosphere
Directly in front of the timber building lies the 25-meter outdoor natural pool. The biological water treatment system requires no chlorine, ensuring your skin remains soft after a swim. As you swim your laps in peace, your gaze wanders undisturbed toward the Wendelstein. A historic highlight in the garden is the sauna hut from 1936, constructed from Kelo wood. Together with the indoor pool, they form an ensemble that eschews artificial effects, providing space to find rest at your own rhythm.

Culinary delights in 3/4 time: The Menu du jour
Those arriving for a weekend at the Tannerhof nature hotel will experience a refreshing clarity at the table as well. We consciously avoid overloaded buffets or confusing menus, serving instead a daily changing Menu du jour, prepared à la minute and entirely without convenience products. The culinary foundation is the Planetary Health Diet: seasonal organic vegetables take center stage, while meat or fish thoughtfully complement the menu on selected days.
- Breakfast: A refined buffet featuring homemade muesli, fresh bread from the local organic bakery in Bayrischzell, organic cheese, and warm egg dishes.
- Lunch: A light "Soup'n'Salad" with a fresh salad buffet, delicate daily soups, and homemade spreads.
- Dinner: A versatile 3- to 4-course menu by candlelight, served on weekends as a multi-course Slow Food tasting menu.
Our dining experience fits harmoniously into the rhythm of our "3/4 time." Between meals, there is plenty of time for hiking, sauna sessions, and quiet moments in nature. To preserve the peaceful atmosphere during meals, mobile devices remain switched off in the dining rooms. This turns shared meals into a mindful break that allows the mind to settle.

Time for yourself: Massages, natural cosmetics, and therapies
While a long weekend may be too short for a full fasting cure, it provides the perfect timeframe for rejuvenating wellness treatments. Treatments at the Tannerhof combine ancient healing methods with modern medicine and soothing touch to bring body and soul into balance. An experienced team of therapists, estheticians, and medical professionals tailors each session to your individual needs.
- Massages and physiotherapy to release deep-seated tension after a demanding work week and awaken new energy.
- Natural cosmetic treatments using products from brands like Marias and Pharmos, which restore noticeable freshness to the skin.
- Traditional water treatments and Kneipp hydrotherapy in our own bathhouse to stimulate circulation and strengthen the immune system.
- Coaching and art therapy for mental relief, helping to strengthen inner resources and clear your head for everyday life.
The combination of crisp mountain air, the tranquility of the BadeHarpfe, and individually tailored therapies turns a short weekend at the Tannerhof into a catalyst for new energy. Whether through a relaxing massage, a revitalizing Kneipp treatment, or quiet hours by the natural pool – two nights are enough to leave the daily grind behind.
