Austria multi activity holiday
This trip is available on request for 7 night stays (Sat-Sat) on arrival dates between June 6 and Sept 26.
Description of Austria multi activity holiday
This exciting multi activity holiday is hosted at MoaAlm Mountain Retreat, a unique and beautifully designed mountain house, situated high in the Austrian Alps. Each holiday at MoaAlm offers a healthy balance of fresh air, mountain activities, yoga and great freshly cooked plant based food.
HIKING:
Situated at 1800m, MoaAlm Mountain Retreat offers a superb base from which to explore the breathtaking mountains of East Tirol. We create a personalised holiday, giving you the opportunity to share our passion for the mountains, with five guided hikes.
MOUNTAIN BIKING:
Alpine trails, windy forest tracks, or speedy down hill bump tracks are available within cycling distance from MoaAlm. You can choose between traditional mountain bikes or have a go on a e-mountain bike, allowing you to tackle more of the down hill without the strenuous up hill first!
RAFTING:
The river Isel that flows at the bottom of our valley is a unique river, being the only river in the Alps that has not been damned or used for hydroelectricity. Not only does this mean it is an excellent place to spot wildlife, but it is also excellent for rafting! We work with a trusted local rafting guide to ensure you have an incredible day out on the rapids.
YOGA:
Every holiday with us includes six yoga classes in our in-house yoga studio with panoramic mountain views. At MoaAlm we believe that yoga is for everyone, no matter what your age or level of fitness and, as such, our classes are prepared with all of our guests’ needs in mind.
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES
If you would like an adrenaline rush, we can also arrange additional activities with our local partners, such as canyoning, paragliding, mountaineering and rock climbing.
FOOD:
We are passionate about healthy living and reducing our impact on the environment. Therefore included in your holiday are five three course evening meals which are entirely plant based. Our in house chef creates seasonal menus and our food is organic and as locally sourced as possible. We also offer a delicious, organic breakfast and freshly baked cakes with organic tea and coffee.
ABOUT THE AREA
We are situated on the edge of the Hohe Tauren National Park underneath Austria's highest mountain, Großglockner. This means we have a unique opportunity to spot rare wildlife, flora and fauna. Our local village Kals is still a traditional Alpine village, where many of the residents graze animals on the high alpine pastures. Kals is also home to a small ski resort and a few lovely traditional restaurants.

Planet
MoaAlm Mountain Retreat is a space to share our passion for the mountains and a balanced and healthy lifestyle. The East Tyrolian Alps offer unspoilt landscapes and habitat for a variety of plants and animals. We are located on the edge of the Hohe Tauern National Park and part of a small village community, Kals am Großglockner. Every day, life at MoaAlm reminds us of the preciousness of our environment which it is our goal to protect.We serve plant based, locally sourced organic food, and change our menu with the seasons to ensure we are creating as minimul impact on the environment as possible.
Saving CO2 emissions, energy and waste is an important goal. We encourage everybody to be conscious about how to use the lighting and heating in the house. We use LED light bulbs, water-saving shower heads and environmentally friendly cleaning products. Towels and bed linen are only changed on request. We try to avoid waste by ordering things in a well-planned way with little packaging. What still has to go is separated, composted or recycled if possible.
Our water is supplied directly from a mountain spring and our heating system is a brand new 'eco' pellet burning system. The P4 pellet system has won many international quality awards in EU and USA, the most prestigious of all are the Blue Angel and the Austrian Ecolabel. Even in winter our South facing position can also provide supplementary energy from our solar bank.
Natural materials have been used in the construction and renovation of MoaAlm where possible and we have been pleased to find a number of high quality, locally produced materials to use in the refurbishment. The local tradesmen we employ are highly skilled, particularly in mediums of wood, stone and locally-produced felt.
People
MoaAlm stands proud at 1800 meters and without a neighbor in sight. We love our secluded location, but we also love the village! The connection to the people in our region means a lot to us and we prefer to use local structures, services and products. The area has an excellent ski school and advanced mountain guiding network of instructors that guests may choose to take advantage of. All fresh food and drink will be sourced locally where possible. Guests will eat out for lunch on occasion and two evenings at locally-run recommended restaurants.Our small team lives and works at MoaAlm: We want them to be happy and stay long-term, of course. Good and fair working conditions and enough freedom to enjoy the mountains go without saying. Our team consists mainly of women and we feel that this place is very empowering for us as female hosts and guides, but also for our guests. Together with other people we experience nature, ourselves in yoga, and the confidence in our own abilities in the mountains.
