The hotel offers a varied yoga programme and a wellness area with an indoor pool, bio sauna, Finnish sauna and steam room. Soothing massages and holistic treatments at the spa nurture body and mind. Restaurant La Fucina serves refined slow food that celebrates mindful dining. The idyllic courtyard, with its heated outdoor pool and terrace, is a lovely place to unwind while looking out towards the village church.

Whether you choose to go walking or cycling, or spend time in the modern fitness room, the surrounding area and hotel offer plenty of ways to stay active and recharge. Here, mindfulness, good food and a zest for life come together in a holiday that stays with you long after you leave.

Lana, an idyllic village in South Tyrol, brings together Mediterranean flair and Alpine charm. Surrounded by orchards, vineyards and gentle mountains, it offers the perfect balance of relaxation and activity. Wander through historic lanes, past old churches and lively markets, while the surrounding mountains invite you to explore unspoilt countryside on foot or by bike. Lana has stories to tell—in its castles, along its paths and in every glass of wine. It’s a special kind of retreat, where relaxation, enjoyment and adventure come together.

The bread comes from Nals and Ultental, the organic eggs from Vinschgau, the tea from Bolzano and the coffee from Völs. Every ingredient is a regional speciality. The honey, cheese and yoghurt also come from Ultental. The team builds personal relationships with all its farmers, producers and suppliers, and visits them regularly. Depending on the season, the hotel’s own Schwarzbauergarten provides fresh vegetables, aromatic herbs and fruit to enrich the kitchen. Juices, beers, wines and spirits are sourced locally, while the wine list showcases a carefully selected range from South Tyrol, the wider region and Italy.

The kitchen team transforms regional, seasonal ingredients into delicious dishes, including vegan and vegetarian options, as well as dishes free from lactose and gluten. The breakfast buffet features a wide variety of specialities from local farms and mountain pastures. In the evening, guests can enjoy a high-quality four-course menu with three choices, made using the finest local ingredients and fresh fish from Italian waters. Lunch is available in the afternoon for a supplement. Schwarzschmied Bar and Lounge completes the offering with homemade and locally sourced drinks, as well as creative cocktails.

At Balance-SPA, the indoor and outdoor pools are heated all year round and filled with revitalised Grander water, inviting you to take a dip and unwind. The bio sauna (approx. 65°C) and outdoor Finnish sauna (approx. 90°C) are available from 13:00 to 20:00. The steam room offers soothing warmth, while the indoor relaxation rooms, with their fireplaces and fires, create a cosy atmosphere. At the tea bar, enjoy organic teas and refreshing drinks.

A special highlight is the range of massages and beauty treatments, from high-quality facials using Susanne Kaufmann™ products to massages such as the energising Dorn-Breuss back massage, shiatsu and detox treatments. The spa facilities are available to you for the whole day on your departure day, even after check-out, so you can relax right until the end of your stay.

Indoors, outdoors, yoga – “At Schwarzschmied, we’d like to take you on a journey towards yourself. Make space for your inner balance and find relaxation in the midst of activity.”
