Alpine-Mediterranean cuisine in the evening:
the Sonnenhof Gourmet Dinner

The best from both worlds. We would describe the dinner at the Sonnenhof as… Traditional delicacies from the Alpine region, lovingly combined with light and fresh specialities from the Italian Mediterranean. Our meat, vegetables and fruit are sourced seasonally from local farmers. The game we use comes from our own hunting area. The local fish comes from the nearby Passiria Valley.

The icing on the cake is a tempting selection of sweet delicacies from Sonnenhof’s patisserie corner.
