Modern & welcoming: Natur Resort Rissbacher
The former Rissbacherhof in the village of Stumm in the Zillertal Valley has recently been modernised and transformed into the 4* Natur Resort Rissbacher. The new rooms and suites, all of which have a balcony with mountain views, are furnished with solid pine chairs, tables, cupboards, etc. Energy is drawn from renewable sources. The highlight at the resort, which is run by the Rissbacher family, is the SKY SPA on the top floor, high above the rooftops of the village, featuring a heated outdoor pool, a lounge and a selection of saunas.

Idyllic & secluded: Boggnhof
Hidden away in a beautifully secluded location, the Boggnhof in the tiny hamlet of Stummerberg is a great place to get away from it all. This guesthouse in the Zillertal Valley offers fabulous views of the mountains from its two recently renovated holiday apartments (“Wiesnblick” and “Weitblick”) run by the Braunegger family. The former, as the name suggests, offers mainly views of lush mountain pastures, while the latter has majestic panoramas across the valley floor and beyond. Both flats are fitted with traditional wooden furniture and provide an ideal base for families and groups.
