Austria has a long tradition of distilling schnaps. Austrian farms have, for centuries, distilled Obstler, typically apples, pears, plums, as well as delicious wild-growing blueberries, raspberries, and in Ramsau even rowan.
Professional schnaps distilleries grew out of the farmhouse distilleries, refining the quality of the Obstler, which was once just distilled for personal use. From the farmhouse and down the centuries, a truly high-quality schnaps culture has developed.
The origin of the word schnaps comes from the Low-German word for ‘to snap’ (Germ. schnappen). A high-quality schnaps should, however, never be ‘snapped’, but enjoyed.
To experience the perfect schaps, serve it at 16° to 17° in a belly-shaped glass with a ‘chimney.’ Firstly, take in the schnaps’ scent by moving the glass past your nose with your eyes closed. Now the first sip. Take as much air as possible with the drink to have a large surface in your mouth – just like a bubble – to free your olfactory and taste receptors. And now gently swallow the schnaps, taking in the smell and taste of the fresh fruit. At Hotel Berghof, we have many high-quality schnaps from Styria and Austria, and we are happy to share our expertise.

Aschbeehaisl – Karl Pilz, Ramsau am Dachstein
One of the best distillers, da Aschbeehaisla, is in Ramsau am Dachstein.
sanus per aquam – spa – is Latin for ‘healthy thanks to water’. Sink into the refreshing water of the indoor pool at a pleasant 29°C. It is open from 7 am to 8 pm, and, in summer, you can head for the revitalising swimming pond, or a Biotop and leisure lake. About as cool and circulation-enhancing as the charming Ramsaubach mountain river is our Kneipp water-treading pool next to the hotel.
We highly recommend kneipping after a session in one of our saunas: a 42°C infrared sauna, a 62°C organic sauna with 42% air humidity and colour-light therapy, a 42°C amethyst steam bath with 85% air humidity and aromatic scent, as well as a 90°C Finnish sauna with colour-light therapy. The highlight of our feel-good spa is the 90°C panorama sauna outdoors, offering fantastic views of the Schladming Tauern mountains. The cold shower afterwards will get your circulation going again. The spa also has a 50 m² gym, fully air-conditioned.
In vino salvatio – In wine, salvation
The small Styrian vineyards offer an astonishing variety. Our aim is to discover and collect the most precious of these rare wines for our friends and guests. We keep close friendly contact with the best winegrowers, so, time and again, we can load our cellar with their finest, rarest wines.
Good wine is like a friendship, those ripened the longest are the most harmonious. In co-operation with Christian Jauk (a local vintner), we produce a series of wines called Die Freundschaft – friendship – which we enjoy at Hotel Berghof.

Hoch vom Dachstein an, wo der Aar noch haust bis ins Rebenland (from the Dachstein, where the eagle lives, to the vine land) is the first line of the Styrian anthem.
The Styrian anthem serves as name and motto for the Hoch Dachstein wine brother- and sisterhood, founded in February 2002. In our association with Hotel Berghof we
Joining the wine brotherhood and sisterhood. An application for admission, supported by a warrantor, is considered by the brother or sister council. At the acceptance ceremony, the new member vows to support wine culture to their best ability and introduce the art of enjoying wine; he or she takes a symbolic sip from our cup, signs the brother or sisterhood book, then gets a brotherhood or sisterhood pin.
