Organic hotel features: Organic garden – experience, taste and relax in nature

An organic garden at a nature hotel is more than just a green space: it's a vibrant part of the overall sustainable concept, inviting you to consciously experience nature, plants, and gardening. In an organic garden, herbs, vegetables, fruits, and flowers grow according to ecological principles – often right next to the hotel or within naturally designed garden landscapes.

What characterizes an organic garden?

An organic garden emphasizes ecological diversity, natural cultivation methods, and the avoidance of chemical products. It often features herb beds, vegetable plots, fruit trees, and flower strips, all of which together create a habitat for people, insects, and birds.

• Fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables from our own production
• Fruit trees, shrubs and edible flowers
• Colorful flower meadows for biodiversity and insects
• Compost and soil cultivation areas according to permaculture principles

Experiences in the garden – in selected organic hotels

Examples from organic hotels illustrate what an organic garden can offer:

At the Biohotel Panorama in Mals/South Tyrol, you can experience how herbs, tomatoes, asparagus, and berries grow in the hotel's own garden and are later transformed into delicious dishes in the kitchen – enjoying produce straight from the garden to your plate. Especially in summer, the garden is a place for harvesting and discovery.

The Steineggerhof farm has designed its organic garden according to permaculture principles: Over 120 different plant species grow here, including herbs, vegetables, fruit trees, and wildflowers. You can explore the garden, pick herbs directly, and learn more about sustainable plant care during guided garden tours.

What you can do in the organic garden

An organic garden is a place for activities, relaxation, and connecting with nature. Many hotels design them so that you can:

• participate in garden tours or herb walks
• Pick and taste fresh herbs or fruit yourself.
• participate in workshops on garden care, botany or permaculture
• Relaxing on seats, deck chairs or under trees

Some houses integrate their gardens directly into the restaurant: Harvested herbs and vegetables enrich the menu, homemade juices, jams or salads are produced seasonally fresh from the garden.

An organic garden at the nature hotel combines enjoyment, knowledge and nature experience – a place of peace, discovery and sustainable enjoyment.
