Cycling is feeling the wind, it's the sun on your face, it's cornering and sprinting down the straights. Road cycling is more than training. Road cycling is seeing, hearing, watching landscapes pass by, experiencing South Tyrolean culture. This package is for all those who long for movement, for expansiveness, for tingling joie de vivre and flowing energy. No bike of your own with you? We are pleased to organise a rental bike.

Arise light menu
A healthy, balanced diet that contains all vitamins and micronutrients. The ingredients in our dishes come mainly from the Arnica garden, as well as from selected suppliers in the immediate vicinity.
Time out. Wonderful vacuum in the jungle of events. An inverted occupational therapy for all those who try to achieve everything, reach for the stars and yet yearn for a down-to-earth everyday life.
Genuine, simple, emotion meets compositions with temperament and passion. We are inspired by the products of our region - welcome to a culinary journey in South Tyrol.
In our hotel we take it for granted to be aware of the fast-passing time and to remember everything that is true and important. With this package, we want to help you achieve this awareness and at the same time give you energy.
We want to offer you time to calm down, re-energize and prepare for the next, very personal ambition. The services we offer you here are intended as a supporting programme for your very personal and individual holiday.
We build on a close symbiosis between yoga, untouched nature, unique experiences and incomparable culinary explorations. The interaction between sporting activities and culinary adventures takes you to a new level.
A stay that creates the freedom to refocus, recharge energy and provide muse for new ventures.
An interaction of physical movement and spiritual well-being, which is supposed to transport us to the ground of facts and to airy heights. Physical exercise is the cornerstone for a relaxation phase.
Our spirits love to be awakened. Sometimes it takes a little time and a clear commitment to do so: dynamic movement and activating massages make remnants of laziness disappear and we feel energised and full of joie de vivre.
We sit in the office, we sit in the car, we sit on the couch. But a sedentary lifestyle is not in keeping with our nature and can easily make us feel sluggish, tired and dull. Our energy levels drop, we tense up, it feels crowded inside us. We long for movement, for expansiveness, for a tingling lust for life and flowing energy.
Let us guide you:
Give yourself a precious time and get valuable impulses for a joyfully moving everyday life. Included in the package are:
Power Vinyasa with Hanni: Powerful, flowing movement sequences for an awake, lively day.
Functional Fitness Training with Samantha: Actively in contact with the body.
Activating massage and kidney wrap: Getting the vital energy of our kidneys going and flowing has an invigorating effect on body and mind.
A light, delicious vegetarian menu with fresh ingredients from our Arnica field and local suppliers.
Arise light menu
A healthy, balanced nutrition that contains all vitamins and micronutrients. The raw materials in our menus come mainly from our Arnica field and from selected suppliers in the immediate surroundings.
Rest and slowness are all too often neglected in our everyday lives. Yet they are fundamental to our ability to recover, to go through life with strength and to achieve our goals. Every top athlete knows that. Without breaks, there is no high performance.
After the inhalation, the exhalation follows. After the day, comes the night. After activity, comes relaxation. These are the rhythms of a natural life. The first two we cannot influence at will. We breathe in and out, the day and the night alternate again and again, but we do not always let a relaxation break follow an active time. Continuous activity and performance are not good for humans. Our nervous system is constantly in flight or attack mode, our bodily functions are reduced, and at some point we are simply exhausted and tired. This is why it is absolutely necessary, especially for people who have a lot on their agenda, to find a rhythm that allows for breaks to relax and rest. For a healthy, powerful life.
Let us guide you:
Give yourself a precious time and take away valuable impulses for a serene and relaxed everyday life. The package includes:
A Yin Yoga class with Johanna: The gentle holding of the positions in Yin Yoga releases deep-seated tension in muscles, joints and fasciae and harmonises body and mind.
A full-body massage with lavender oil: The body is allowed to rest and release its weight. The mind relaxes with the wonderful scent of lavender.
A light, delicious vegetarian menu with fresh ingredients from our Arnica acre and local suppliers.
Arise light menu

Our gut plays a much bigger role in our well-being than we might think. It needs light, loving thoughts and mindful attention just as much as it needs warm and beneficial food and exercise. Happy gut, happy people.
The direct connection between our thoughts, our lifestyle and the health of our digestive system has been proven. Natural rhythms of life with regeneration breaks and rest, the enjoyment of good literature, art and music, meaningful activities, creativity and good relationships are the best prerequisites for our digestive system to feel good and run smoothly. And if we do something good for our body with healthy food, gentle exercise and treatments, we will feel lighter and happier all round and our thoughts will take on a new quality and clarity. A cycle that makes life so much easier and more beautiful.
Let us guide you:
Give yourself a precious time and get valuable impulses for an easily digestible everyday life. Included in the package are:
Detox Yoga with Steffi: Gentle yoga exercises to activate your inner fire, which supports you in digesting and transforming what you face in life, absorbing what you need and letting go of what is no longer good for you.
Soothing massage with liver wrap and foot reflex massage - enjoy peace, detoxify, feel a new balance.
A light, delicious vegetarian menu with fresh ingredients from our Arnica acre and local suppliers.

Our immune system is our guardian in turbulent times. To get us through life strong and healthy, it needs attention and strengthening, reconnection with outer and inner nature, fresh air and purifying water, rest and relaxation.
It is all already there and within us. In our often busy everyday lives, we sometimes forget our natural power and as a result our immune system starts to weaken. If we remember our nature and get back into relationship with it, healing processes can happen and we feel powerful and healthy again. The forest, the fresh air, deep breathing, gentle movement and coming to rest allows joy to arise from within and gives us and our immune system new strength.
Let us guide you:
Give yourself a precious time and gain valuable impulses for a strengthened everyday life. Included in the package are:
Introduction to meditation/forest bathing and yoga with Stefan: Discover and enjoy the regenerating power of the forest, immerse yourself in your own inner world and start moving from the inside out. A gift for body and mind.
Lymph stimulating massage for face and legs: cleansing effect for the body, strengthening effect for our immune system.
A light, delicious vegan/vegetarian menu with fresh ingredients from our Arnica acre and local suppliers.

Simon brings 25 years of of study, practice, and assisting with world renowned master teachers Maty Ezraty, Shiva Rea, Richard Freeman, and Dharma Mittra.

Later acclaimed by Yoga Journal as "one of the most influential and gifted Yoga teachers of the next generation”, he has been leading workshops, teacher trainings, and retreats around the world since 2002. His free-style Vinyasa is fluid, intuitive, and encourages freedom through self-expression.

Body Poetry Yoga and Meditation Retreat with Meg Shuba. Join us late autumn for nuanced & emotionally connected Vinyasa, Yin, Meditation and Restorative Yoga Practices using Taoist, Kundalini and Buddha Dharma Theory. Meg's teaching are multi-layered, emotionally provocative, and whimsical with rich-storytelling. The morning sessions will creative heat in the body with exquisitely cued flow-based classes while the evening we will settle down with heavenly nourishing stretches and meditations.
For almost 10 years, her flow landscapes and potent meditations have caught the attention of magazine publications, celebrities, and those stepping onto the mat for the first time. Having lived throughout the United States, Meg’s classes reflect her own personal discoveries as her deep love for the practice pours out. As she wordsmiths students on an emotional and artful journey, she gives of herself fully. Meg’s students have travelled with her on global retreats and studied under her, through her Yoga School. Her hope is to bring a down-to-earth and relatable experience…one that’s magnetic, electric, and maybe, even filled with belly laughs or tears. You choose. In the way she deeply, fluidly, and unconventionally moves the body and mind, Meg’s signature (and perhaps, unusual) style, poetically weaves together femininity, humor and storytelling.
„I feel love“ lässt dich in Verbindung treten mit deinem Herz und lädt Dich ein, dich vollständig verbunden zu fühlen, mit Dir Selbst und mit Allem, was um uns ist. Inspiriert aus der tantrischen Yogaphilosophie lässt dich dieses Retreat die Lebendigkeit in deinem Herzen wiederentdecken und Dich für alles zu öffnen, was das ist, alles Schöne, wie auch alles Herausfordernde. Diese drei Tage sind eine wundervolle Übung, mit dem zu fließen, was da ist, sei es die Stille oder bewegende Musik, seien es Lieblingshaltungen oder herausfordernde Übungen. Entdecke die Liebe in Dir: Der Körper wird zum Tempel, das Leben zur heiligen Erfahrung. Das Yogaprogramm richtet sich an alle Könnerstufen.
Magdalena ist Yogalehrerin, medizinische Masseurin und Mama von einem kleinen Sonnenschein. Ihr Yogaweg beginnt 2008. Sie macht in Indien ihre erste Yogalehrer-Ausbildung, darauf folgen viele Weiterbildungen in verschiedene Yogarichtungen bei internationalen Lehrern und Buchautoren wie Karin Furtmeier und Diana Sans. 2018 lernt Magdalena die Tradition des Tantra-Yoga kennen und ist vom ersten Moment an fasziniert von diesem freien und lebensbejahenden, feinstofflichen aber zugleich bodenständigen Weltbild. Das Schöne dieses alltagstauglichen Konzepts ist, dass es sowohl auf, aber vor allem abseits der Yogamatte, mitten im Leben, erfahrbar wird. Ich freue mich, Dir das Gefühl der Lebendigkeit, der Liebe und Verbundenheit zum Leben weiterzuvermitteln und mit Dir zu teilen.
