Alpine happiness
Alpine happiness
There is a place,
where you have the absolute
certainty of being
happy,...
...in the Hochraut.Alm.Manufaktur
in the Antholz Valley, east of Bruneck.
In 2004, the
sisters Michi and Angelika Schuster decided to realize their dream and share South Tyrol's natural wonders with guests.
The idea for the hut came from their father, who trusted the two of them with the challenge of revitalizing the dilapidated barn with stable and cooking hut.
The cooking philosophy of their grandmother and mother has shaped and inspired the two sisters -
down-to-earth, honest, regional and seasonal:
We cook with what grows here, because nature determines the menu.

Alm.Genuss breakfast
Hike through the refreshing, moss-scented forest at dawn and breathe in the morning air
Because happy people need space to breathe.
Arrive.
The Hochraut Alm.Manufaktur is like an island in the forest, shrouded in morning mist.
An open fire, the smell of coffee and a table set with sustainably home-made specialties await you to create feelings of happiness.
Can you taste happiness?
Yes, when tradition, old family recipes and creativity meet the present day and cooking is done with care, respect and mindfulness.
Saving resources and being mindful is the way to create delicious meals
that turn eating and drinking into intense, happy moments.
Alpine pasture lunch
Almcafè
Sweet happiness makers.
Delicacies can make you happy, and that doesn't just apply to chocolate.
Whether with a cappuccino in the morning, after lunch or with a cool aperitif in the afternoon, sweet treats always work and have the ability to increase well-being.
Using carefully selected recipes and seasonal, regional and pure ingredients, the HOCHRAUT Almbäckerei not only creates bread, but also cakes, strudel, ice cream and other desserts.
To ensure that this indulgent experience does not end with a guilty conscience, sugar and fat are reduced and no artificial ingredients are used.
The best of the little
Enjoy = Happy
Alpine philosophy
Our alpine philosophy is geared towards sustainable living and working for generations. We are happy and satisfied with what we do and
grateful to our ancestors who chose this wonderful place and created this happy island in the forest with a great deal of physical effort and sweat.
We want to set a good example and be present as responsible people for our employees and our guests.
Conservation of resources, protection of our landscape, our own energy production from water and sun, respect for the environment and the work of the producers of our valuable food,
short transportation routes, waste avoidance, sustainable mobility options for employees and guests
as core themes of our mission.
The origin and seasonality of our ingredients
characterize the selection of our dishes and drinks and with our menu we want to offer a culinary experience.
As an island in the middle of the forest, as we often call our alp, we would like to show our guests:
Enjoy alpine happiness
makes you happy
