The scent of herbs and flowers

Our gardens are a paradise for all hobby botanists and passionate cooks. Enjoy the many colourful and fragrant flowers that turn our garden into a bright landscape and bring a smile to your face. We are especially proud of our herb garden, which you are welcome to help yourself to. The aromatic herbs give fantastic flavours and that special South Tyrolean touch to your dishes and ours.

The South Tyrolean power fruit

We are talking about the apple, of course! Fun fact: The queen of South Tyrolean fruit varieties gives the Natz-Schabs apple plateau its name. We take care of our surrounding apple orchards with dedication and process the juicy apples into juice, apple chips, and delicious strudel – we are a fruit farm through and through! All these products are available in our farm shop. If you would like to learn more about the steps involved in apple growing, Rudi would be happy to explain everything you need to know during your next stay at Kessler’s Mountain Lodge.

Did you know ...

... boilermakers and coppersmiths use a processing technique called “cold forging”? This means that the objects are formed almost at room temperature, bending, hammering, rolling, and pulling.
