Farm Holiday | Russbach in the Salzburger Land | Dachstein West
Five good reasons why staying at Reiter’s simply feels better.
A farm holiday is always something special – but at Reiters Ferienhaus in Russbach, it feels just that bit more real. Here, mountain air meets heartfelt hospitality, freedom meets comfort, and nature blends with the scent of freshly baked farmhouse bread.
We’ve gathered five good reasons why your next farm holiday should take place right here.
1. Because nature here is still truly nature.
Few places capture authenticity like Russbach am Pass Gschütt.
Around Reiter’s Holiday Home, you’ll find green meadows, forests, streams – and a night sky full of stars once more.
Whether you’re walking barefoot through the grass, lighting the barbecue in the garden, or simply sitting in the pavilion –
here, you’ll rediscover what peace really means.
2. Because children can still be children here.
Outside, there’s a trampoline, a playground, and plenty of space to run, explore and laugh.
Just three minutes away, you’ll also find a climbing tower and a motor skills park – perfect for little adventurers with big hearts.
When the sun begins to set, everyone gathers once more around the campfire or barbecue –
right in the middle of the Salzburg mountains.
3. Because animals become friends here.
Our animal companions are the heart of the farm:
sheep, goats, rabbits, cats and hens ↗︎
all happy to meet curious visitors and gentle hands.
For many children, it’s their first real encounter with animals –
and often the most memorable moment of the holiday.
The soft bleating in the morning, the clucking in the garden,
the joy of finding your first egg –
these are memories that stay.
4. Because everything is better together.
Breakfast on the terrace.
A chat with your host, Silvia Reiter.
An evening barbecue in your own garden.
Here, it’s not about schedules – it’s about connection.
About stories shared.
And about that quiet, grounding feeling of truly belonging.
5. Because every day feels different.
One day you’re heading up the Dachstein,
the next you’re walking barefoot through the grass.
Sometimes, you do absolutely nothing –
and that’s the beauty of it.
At Reiter’s Holiday Home, there’s no rush.
Just a gentle rhythm that makes you realise:
this is where you’re meant to be.
Those who’ve stayed here know:
You arrive as a guest – and leave as a friend.
