Suddenly it smells like autumn! For many, this is the most beautiful time to travel! The rush of summer tourists is over, the climate is more temperate in many regions and in Central European latitudes, nature beckons with glowing autumn forests. Pack your bags and treat yourself to some time away from home, preferably in a sustainable hotel, of course! Our Green Pearls® partners have made a few thoughts about how you can enjoy your time with them in autumn.

Golden autumn in Zermatt

Clear air, bright sunshine and golden forests make Zermatt an autumn hiker’s paradise. The CERVO Mountain Resort also sees it that way and therefore will remain open throughout the winter season for the first time. The CERVO is the perfect starting point to discover the magical mountain world of the autumnal Alps or to spend wonderful hours in the Mountain Ashram Spa. From Monday, 27.9. to Thursday, 2.12. all 24 rooms of the 4* category Nomad, the restaurant Bazaar and the Mountain Ashram Spa including weekly programme with Yoga, Meditation and Pilates are bookable. The CERVO team is looking forward to welcoming many hiking or wellness-hungry autumn holidaymakers.

Double hiking pleasure in the Harz Mountains

You could also go hiking in the Harz Mountains, which are one of the most popular hiking regions in Germany with their magnificent mountain landscapes, forests and moorlands – and of course the Brocken. But the UNESCO World Heritage town of Quedlinburg, the Rübeländer stalactite caves, or the Rappbode Dam are also attractive destinations. One of the best places to rest your tired legs after hiking along with a restful sleep, good food and wellness is the Schlosshotel Blankenburg. With the “Hiking Pleasures in the Harz” package the hiking holiday in the 4* hotel with historical charm becomes a truly grand experience, foot massage included!

The package includes: 5 x overnight stays in the chosen room category, daily rich breakfast buffet and dinner as 3-course menu of choice or buffet, 1 x hiking rucksack (on loan) including packed lunch & a bottle of Palatinate wine, 1 x foot massage (30 minutes), 1 x city map of Blankenburg, free minibar with non-alcoholic drinks, free use of the sauna area, and much more. Price: from € 530.75 p.p. in a double room.

Harz tip number 2 is the Naturresort Schindelbruch. Here you can start directly from the hotel on the most beautiful hiking routes of the southern Harz and marvel at the red beech and mixed mountain forests that shine in their many colours. How about a tour to the Joseph’s Cross or to the romantic half-timbered town of Stolberg? You can also rent e-bikes directly at the hotel and extend your tour radius accordingly. The exclusive Naturresort Schindelbruch has three restaurants, a wine bar, a fitness centre and an impressive 2,500m2 wellness area, so you can even enjoy a rainy autumn day. Hiking, forest bathing, biking, culture or wellness – 5 days with the “GOLDEN AUTUMN” package are sure to pass far too quickly at the green Schindelbruch Nature Resort.

“Golden Autumn” Package: 5 climate-positive nights (you only pay for 4.), incl. rich breakfast, daily dinner as a 4-course Schindelbruch menu, free use of the 2.500 m2 spa and fitness area, a bottle of water, bathrobe and slippers in your room upon arrival, free participation in the sports and activity programme, 1 vitality dish in the spa bistro per adult, 1x soft pack “Moorlicht” on the floating lounger (30 min.) per adult and 1x relaxation massage “Festhalten & Loslassen” (50 min.) per adult.

Autumn in the SAND

Those who prefer a stiff breeze through their hair and sand under their feet should head for the autumnal north. Wrap up in a beach chair and enjoy the last warming rays of sunshine for the year, and later warm up your soul in a cosy café with one of the wonderful North German tea and coffee specialities. If this sounds like something for you, it’s best to make your way to Timmendorfer Strand.

Here you can stay in style at the Lifestylehotel SAND. Almost everything in the SAND is made of natural products, from the interior to the kitchen.
