Snow sports for young and old!

There is hardly a gentler way for the little ones to discover winter sports than at the Oberforsthof. The children’s ski school and ski rental are right next to the hotel. If required, we can shuttle the children to the gondola station, where experienced ski instructors playfully introduce them to winter sports in the Kinderland and Snow Space.

Fun in the snow off piste

Unlimited off-piste winter sports opportunities in St. Johann im Pongau

Not everyone likes the hustle and bustle on the slopes. That doesn’t matter, because there’s so much more to experience off-piste. By that we mean quiet winter sports classics such as cross-country skiing, ski touring and snowshoeing as well as tobogganing, ice skating and curling, romantic winter hikes and horse-drawn sleigh rides, but also more exotic adventures such as fat biking in the snow or dog sledding. Much of this is possible right on our doorstep. Just let us inspire you. You’ll get all the information and support you need on site.

approx. 50 m², for 2-4 persons, separate lounge with sofa bed, luxury bathroom with sauna & south-facing balcony with dream view

Suite Marie

If our Antonia had had another daughter, she would have been named Marie. Of course, the mum would have created the best conditions for the offspring to experience as much security and happiness as possible. That's exactly why we call our newest luxury accommodation Suite Marie. It offers you a beautiful ambience, all the comforts and space you need to be happy. This includes a separate bedroom with king-size bed, a walk-in wardrobe and a cosy living room with sofa bed. The large furnished south-facing balcony with a magnificent panorama is like an extra room with a built-in light shower. Here you are sure to experience a few starry hours during your stay!

approx. 36 m², for 2 persons, country-style furnishings with lots of wood and light colours, balcony

Juniorsuite Johanna

With vision and dedication, Johanna Höllwart built this hotel together with her husband in 1965. Our Junior Suites reflect her esprit most vividly. That's why you can particularly enjoy life in these premium rooms: the furnished balcony opens up wide views of the valley, while inside everything invites you to curl up and enjoy. You don't know where to stretch out first - on the king-size bed, sofa, armchair or on the terrace/balcony. In addition, you can conjure up the most diverse lighting moods or discover the broad entertainment programme for yourself. Children also like having so much room to play, as they can sleep comfortably with their parents.

approx. 55 m², for 2-4 persons, separable living area for the children, balcony or terrace with panoramic view.

Suite Barbara

This stately suite is dedicated to the pioneer of the Höllwart hotel dynasty. The dimensions here are as large as her courage: In addition to the spacious bedroom with king-size bed and walk-in wardrobe, a separate living area with a large couch offers plenty of space for cosy get-togethers. The large, bright bathroom with separate WC also leaves nothing to be desired in terms of comfort and privacy. The suite owes its natural charm to the many wooden components in combination with indirect light and earthy colours. The furnished, cozy balcony offers a view of the natural surroundings that will put you in a good mood at any time of day.

approx. 22-28 m², for 2 persons, bedroom and living area, country-style furnishings with lots of wood and light colours, balcony, very quiet.

Double room Rupi

Cosy, quiet and full of warmth - these characteristics apply to all our Rupi rooms. In addition to premium beds, individual seating, a furnished balcony/terrace facing the inner courtyard and many beautiful details ensure a high level of living comfort. Soft lighting, real wood floors and fixtures in combination with light colours make the feel-good ambience perfect. Here you have a solid outlook on a carefree holiday in the mountains. Just as Rupi would have wished for you.
