ElzLand Hotel Pfauen in detail

Hotel

ElzLand Hotel Pfauen offers a distinctive blend of wellness hotel and health centre. Culinary enjoyment, physical wellbeing and preventive healthcare are at its heart. The beauty of the Black Forest, with its lush green woodlands, flowering meadows and wild gorges, together with the fresh air and mild, restorative climate, supports deep, holistic renewal.

Location & Surroundings

ElzLand Hotel Pfauen is in Oberprechtal, a district of Elzach on the edge of the Southern Black Forest Nature Park. Its peaceful setting at an altitude of around 500 m is ideal for relaxing in nature. Numerous walking and cycling routes start right outside the hotel. The nearest bus stop is just a few minutes’ walk away, and Freiburg can be reached by car in around 45 minutes. Nearby attractions include the Triberg Waterfalls, the Vogtsbauernhof Black Forest Open Air Museum and the Suggental Visitor Mine. The region is known for its clean air and is recognised as a climatic health resort.

Food & Drink

At ElzLand Hotel Pfauen, enjoy cuisine that delights with its light touch: regional, fresh and thoughtfully selected. Every dish is an invitation to do something good for yourself. Ingredients are sourced preferentially from the region, and the preparation reflects an approach centred on mindful enjoyment. With half board Plus, enjoy a generous breakfast from the varied buffet, a light lunch and a vitality dinner menu at the hotel. Refreshments are also available during the day in the tea house. Gluten-free and lactose-free meals can be arranged at the hotel with advance notice. Please discuss any allergies or intolerances with the hotel before arrival.

Wacker® alkaline fasting offers a special experience: an established nutritional concept that gently eases the burden on the body and supports wellbeing. Alkaline fasting means focusing on what matters: fresh, natural foods that help balance the body’s acid–alkaline levels and provide renewed energy.

Wellness & Spa

At Vital Spa, enjoy an exclusive wellness experience with plenty of inviting spaces to unwind. Take a dip in the 26 °C swimming pool, relax in the soothing aroma steam bath or admire the view from the panoramic outdoor sauna. Other highlights include the 36 °C floating saltwater pool, an infrared cabin, the herbal sanarium and a Black Forest silver fir sauna. Treatments use high-quality natural products and modern techniques. Products from TEAM DR JOSEPH and PHARMOS NATUR, together with treatments tailored to your individual needs, create a holistic skincare experience. Options include classic massages, treatments on the floating lounger and ZRT treatments, all tailored to your personal needs and wishes.

Health & Cures

ElzLand Hotel Pfauen is a place where wellbeing and a mindful approach to health come together in harmony. Here, there is a belief in the power of nature, the benefits of mindful rituals and the body’s ability to regulate itself when given the right stimuli. A key element is ZRT® regulation therapy, an innovative approach designed to activate the body’s natural self-healing powers and boost vitality. ZRT® regulation therapy is based on the latest findings in cell biology and evolutionary medicine. It helps regenerate the “extracellular matrix” – the environment surrounding your body’s cells – so they can once again receive optimal nourishment. By strengthening the cellular environment, ZRT® therapy can support greater energy, improved metabolism and an overall sense of wellbeing. Our programmes combine movement, alkaline nutrition and relaxation to help revitalise your health and enhance your quality of life – for a life in balance, full of energy.

Fitness & Sports

At ElzLand Hotel Pfauen, guests can enjoy a varied activity programme that changes daily and brings together movement, relaxation and experiences in nature. Whether you prefer to take part independently or with professional guidance, you’ll find the ideal setting to recharge and find inner calm. The programme includes yoga, Pilates, stretching and forest bathing, among other activities. A modern fitness room is also available, providing the perfect complement. All classes are included in the room rate and adapted to the season. Please register at reception to take part. The programme is suitable for both beginners and more experienced guests, and is an ideal addition to a relaxing break in the Black Forest.

Leisure

Beyond the many ways to enjoy the natural surroundings of ElzLand Hotel Pfauen – whether hiking, cycling or forest bathing – the hotel also offers inspiring indoor activities. Guests can, for example, take part in an alkaline cooking workshop and learn how balanced, alkaline-rich dishes can have a positive effect on health. If you enjoy being active, an extensive network of walking trails and mountain bike routes with varied terrain starts right outside the door. The region also has plenty to offer those interested in culture or keen to explore: Freiburg (approx. 30 km), Europa-Park in Rust (approx. 50 km), Strasbourg (approx. 75 km) and Basel (approx. 100 km) are all within easy reach – ideal for combining time in nature with new discoveries.

The holiday was very relaxing and very nice. The food was fabulous and the staff were very, very friendly. The spa area was very pleasant and clean. The room was also very nice, clean and spacious, with a small sunny balcony. I was able to properly unwind and recharge for two days.

We felt well looked after during alkaline fasting. Excellent food – the alkaline dishes were presented so beautifully that you hardly notice you’re eating a little less. Friendly, well-trained staff.
