FORESTIS

FORESTIS, a five-star luxury mountain retreat located on the southern slope of the Plose mountain, 1800 metres above sea level, invites guests to reconnect with nature and embrace wellness.

The retreat features 62 luxury suites, all with panoramic views of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. The CO2 neutral FORESTIS building uses 100% renewable energy, produced by the retreat’s own plant and wood heating system, while the exteriors and interiors are created using local South Tyrolean suppliers and eco-friendly materials. Surrounding the retreat are the felled trees which are used as fences, with two new plantings made for each tree used.

Opened in May 2023, Odles Lodge is located on the Southern slope of the Plose mountain in South Tyrol sitting just a few kilometres above FORESTIS. Featuring 4 separate lodges and a spa which includes a swimming pool, steam and sauna. Each lodge offers an incredible vista of the massif of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites. Guests can use the restaurant and spa facilities at FORESTIS, yes are invited to live independently in the middle of the forest and feel grounded in nature at Odles Lodge.

The vision of owners Stefan Hinteregger and Teresa Unterthiner, FORESTIS invites guests to reconnect with their body and soul and embrace nature, surrounded by the four elements of pure spring water, pristine mountain air, countless hours of sunshine and a mild climate.

FORESTIS offers an extensive range of year-round wellness packages and curated experiences, including ski-in, ski-out. The FORESTIS Spa concept follows the principle of four native trees: mountain pine, spruce, larch and Swiss pine and head chef, Roland Lamprecht, will introduce ‘Forest Cuisine’, introducing variety, naturalness and authenticity.

Sustainability

  • Sustainability is at the heart of FORESTIS, using natural and local building materials such as stone, wood, fabric and glass.
  • Energy supply is provided by its own plant and a wood heating system, which is 100% renewable energy.
  • The restaurant only uses local products from local suppliers as well as products from Italy. To transport these products, FORESTIS designed their own reusable boxes so that all goods can be transported loose and without plastic packaging.
  • FORESTIS operates a no-waste principle.
