Restaurant Details

Junior Ranch

A place for adventure and fun. The Junior Ranch features a trampoline, an exciting table tennis setup, and basketball. Plus plenty of games — perfect for burning off energy and making new friends.

Garden

Our lovingly designed garden spans 15,000 m² and invites you to slow down: sink into a sun lounger, swing in a hammock under the trees, or get lost in a good book. Archery is also available — bows and arrows can be picked up at the front desk.

Wellness & Spa

While the kids play at the Junior Ranch or in the garden, you have time for yourselves. Our 500 m² spa features a grotto pool, Finnish sauna, Zirben sauna, two infrared cabins, and a relaxation room with water beds. Massages with our therapist Petra are available on request

Sport & Games

For a change of pace: billiards, foosball, and table tennis. For quieter moments, there's a board game collection, coloring books, and pencils.

Discover Highlights

Adventure Park Gosau

Just a few minutes' drive from Vitalhotel Gosau, the Walderlebnis Park is a favorite family destination in the Salzkammergut. In the climbing park, little ones balance, climb, and explore — no equipment needed. Those craving more action will find it at the high ropes course, Jump Station, and Flyer zip-line. Fresh air, big trees, and adventures at every turn.

Dachstein Krippenstein

Take the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car from Obertraun up to one of the region's most spectacular mountain worlds. On the 5 Fingers viewing platform, you'll hover above the void with sweeping views over the Salzkammergut. Inside the Dachstein Giant Ice Caves, marvel at formations meters thick — and the Dachstein Hai brings thrills for the whole family. A destination that combines natural wonder with adventure.

Heritage Town Hallstatt

Just 20 minutes from the hotel, Hallstatt is a true family highlight in the Salzkammergut. At the Salzwelten Hallstatt, kids and adults explore the world of ancient salt mining — including one of the longest underground slides and a mine railway. Up top, the Skywalk offers breathtaking views over Lake Hallstatt. Rent a boat and discover the lake from the water. A day trip that never gets old.

Gosau Adventure Playground & Sports Area

Right next to the hotel, the adventure playground is waiting for little explorers — with swings, slides, seesaws, and much more. Climbing, laughing, running wild. And if Mom, Dad, or older siblings still have energy to spare, the volleyball and soccer court keeps the fun going. A family outing right on your doorstep — no drive required.

Hiking with Betty

Discover the Gosau Valley with an experienced local hiking guide. Betty knows the forests, mountain pastures, and moorlands around Gosau and takes you to places well off the marked trails. In winter, the tours continue on snowshoes through the snow-covered landscape.

Guided E-Bike Tour

Explore the Gosau Valley on a guided e-bike tour with local expert Karl Posch. The electric assist makes longer distances and climbs manageable for the whole family. Karl knows the most scenic routes and adjusts the pace to the group.
