A hike with an herbal twist
Understanding the power of nature
They smell divine, taste delicious, and have healing powers. Native mountain herbs are the beating heart of our garden, as well as the meadows beyond.
What’s a delicious meal without the right herbs? Or a relaxing massage without the perfect blend of essential oils?
At the Hotel Klosterbräu in Seefeld, our herb garden contributes something truly special to every part of your stay, from fresh flavours in our cuisine to herbal infusions in the spa to outdoor adventures in the Tyrolean mountains. Our guests don’t just leave feeling relaxed and refreshed; they also take home a deeper knowledge of herbs, herbal salts, and incense. Join our “herb fairies”, Andrea and Nadine, on a guided herb hike and uncover the secrets of how Alpine herbs are grown, cared for, and used in everything from traditional healing to energising spa rituals.
Just behind the hotel, on Parish Hill, our herb garden flourishes with wild and medicinal herbs, each with its own unique properties. Arnica soothes bumps and bruises, gentian aids digestion, and ribwort plantain relieves insect bites. But we won’t reveal all our secrets just yet – come visit us and you’ll return home with a bit of herbal know-how, practical wellness tips, and a deeper connection to nature’s remedies. For those with a creative spark, there’s even the chance to learn how to make incense blends and tinctures the traditional way.
But the magic doesn’t end with our guided herb hike! At the Hotel Klosterbräu in Seefeld, herbs aren’t just a garnish; they’re part of our daily life. Our philosophy? Homemade is always best. Most of the food we serve and ingredients we use come from our own cultivation – not just the herbs, but also the jams, eggs, and potatoes. Everything is prepared with care and rooted in tradition.
Who knows, perhaps our love of herbs will inspire you to start your own home garden. Even a humble kitchen windowsill can be the beginning of something wonderful. Basil, rosemary, dill, thyme… can you smell the fragrant possibilities?
Dear Klosterbräu Family,
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to EVERYONE for the countless messages and the incredible outpouring of support. Please know that we are all safe.
At present, we are still in an orientation phase and in close coordination with authorities and partners. As difficult as it is for us to say: based on current information, we unfortunately will not be able to welcome you during the upcoming summer season. Our major goal, however, is to reopen the Klosterbräu at the beginning of December 2026. We are currently contacting all reservations that fall within this period. Thank you for your patience.
We are doing everything in our power—with full commitment, day by day—to make this possible. Over the course of the summer, we will be able to better assess whether this timeline can be met.
To stay closely connected with us, we warmly invite you to follow our latest updates via our WhatsApp channel, Instagram, Facebook, or by subscribing to our newsletter.
There is one thing we can say with full conviction:
Alongside the necessary reconstruction work, we will also bring our heartfelt projects to life—
including the expansion of the wellness area, a new natural swimming pond, new rooms, and the renovation of the existing spa.
Something new is being created—while at the same time preserving what lies at the very heart of the Klosterbräu.
Because we know:
What truly lives within the Klosterbräu cannot be taken by fire—rooted in its history, new beauty will rise from the ashes.
With warm regards
Your hosts
