Sun flows through the veins of the Alpegg Chalets, while bees buzz around.
As a family-owned business, we are fully aware of our responsibility towards the environment and nature. Our actions and values today are essential for the future of our children.

At the Alpegg Chalets in Tyrol, a luxurious and refreshing vacation goes hand in hand with minimizing your ecological footprint without noticeable compromises. Enjoy your luxury chalet vacation to the fullest and with a clear conscience.
Solar Power for a Sustainable Chalet Vacation
The Alpegg Chalets generate well over two-thirds of their electricity needs with their in-house photovoltaic system. The PV modules installed on the roof provide around 15 kWp, which equates to approximately 15,000 kWh of self-produced electricity annually, harnessed from the sun as a renewable energy source. The solar system in the garden of the Alpegg Chalets supplies the hot water needed for this vacation oasis. Any additional electricity required is sourced from 100% renewable energy carriers. This marks a significant step towards a fully sustainable overall concept.
Recharge with Solar Energy and Enjoy Free Public TransportAt
At the Alpegg Chalets, you're traveling in an eco-friendly and sustainable way.
Our private carport offers two solar-powered charging stations for guests to recharge their electric cars. It's best to charge during the day to harness energy directly from the sun. Additionally, we provide environmentally friendly mobility with our guest card, which includes free access to all public transport in the region.
Bioheat from Waidring Provided by Local Farmers

Our heating needs are met by the local biomass heating plant in Waidring, which is powered by wood chips. The wood used for energy production comes directly from the forestry operations of local farmers.
Happy Bees and Organic Honey
Host Roland is a passionate organic beekeeper from Waidring. We’re enthusiastic about bees and our exceptional organic honey from the Tyrolean mountains. Roland prioritizes species-appropriate and sustainable beekeeping, which is why his operation will receive the Bio-Demeter certification starting in 2024. The bees provide us with the finest honey while also ensuring a healthy environment and vibrant flower meadows.
Regional Products and Eco-Friendly Household Items
Whether it’s fresh bread from the local bakery, textiles from the regional laundry service, or a private dinner in the chalet prepared by a Waidring private chef, we work with long-standing partners and businesses from the region out of conviction. Eco-friendly products, such as dishwasher tablets from everdrop, dish soap from Molkerei Metzler, and much more, support sustainability at the Alpegg Chalets.
