Sustainable holidays in the heart of the Braies Dolomites

13 reasons why you will sleep even better in our Residence:

• 1. pure nature!
  With the largest renovation in the history of the Bergheim, we have brought even more nature into the house. Relax in the solid wood house made of local spruce.
• 2. natural warmth in a cosy atmosphere.
  Our residence is constructed in a bioclimatic way, using the sun's energy passively through many glass surfaces facing south.
• 3. breathing clean fresh air..
  We have only used natural wood fibre boards for the insulation of our low-energy house. This allows the wooden walls to breathe fresh air 24/7. But that shouldn't stop you from opening the window now and then and inhaling the refreshing mountain air yourself.
• 4. don't just dream about the scent of the forest: experience it in your own four walls.
  Feel the calming effect in a bed made of "Zirben" wood: the heartbeat is lowered and you breathe more calmly and deeply as a result. The pleasant warm scent of the essential oils ensures restful sleep and our guests have more energy for the next holiday day.
• 5. when the sun even shines even in the shower.
  Our guests also benefit from the sun's rays: when the sun shines, the solar system produces hot water.
• 6. from the sky directly into the socket
  With our photovoltaic system, we have given the sun a real VIP suite. It thanks us every day with clean and sustainable energy. Over the year, we can generate almost as much electricity as we consume.
• 7. from the forest directly into the room.
  Should the sun (exceptionally) not shine, our pellet unit supports the heating and hot water production.
• 8. let there be light!
  In order to save electricity, we almost exclusively use LED light bulbs.
• 9. We say goodbye to environmentally harmful cleaning agents!
  We use a steam cleaner for deep and environmentally friendly cleaning without any harmful cleaning agents. It can be used to clean many fabrics and surfaces that otherwise cannot simply be washed. Another advantage of micro-steam: no residues are left behind on which dirt, bacteria and other pathogens can spread.
• 10. Recycling is our mission!
  We collect all waste separately and insert it in the recycling circuit for further processing. Help us to protect our environment and keep it clean.
• 11. less is really less.
  We avoid all plastic packaging as much as possible. Help us to do so and buy regional and seasonal food from producers in the immediate vicinity: short distances - best taste - no or little packaging - less impact on the environment.
• 12. We should toast to this!
  The refreshing mountain spring water from Herrenstein comes straight from the tap: pure and rich in minerals. Fill up your own drinking bottle with our delicious tap water.
• 13. We say NO to light pollution!
  We have reduced outdoor lighting to a necessary minimum in order to save electricity but above all to reduce light pollution at night, which is particularly problematic for insects and wildlife, Decorative lighting is switched off by 11 p.m. at the latest. What do you get out of it? You can admire the most beautiful starry sky when the weather conditions are good.
