Uniqueness
Haus Jausern sits on a gentle plateau of meadows in Saalbach, ski-in ski-out from the front door. The 2021 extension wraps protectively around the original farmhouse, timber and glass folding into each other. Rooms in both buildings share the same quiet: untreated wood, mountain views, no clutter. A natural swimming pond freezes over for winter ice bathing. The heated outdoor pool steams year-round.
The family behind Haus Jausern calls it "a place to calm down and live." Head chef Stefan Lechleitner runs the Roots and Paths Chef's Table with host Lilly, cooking nose-to-tail from regional producers. Breakfast runs near-zero-waste, with leftovers turned into smoothies and cakes. Sustainability here is a conviction, not a label. Nothing must, everything can.
activities at haus jausern
Ski-in ski-out access connects Haus Jausern to 270 kilometres of slopes across the Saalbach-Hinterglemm ski area. Freeriding, ski touring, and snowshoe hiking start from the door. The Schattbergbahn cable car is ten minutes away by bike. In summer, the same gondolas lift mountain bikers to the Saalbach Bike Park. Guided cycling, e-biking, and hiking tours run through the season. Alpine cabins along the trails serve regional food.
A dedicated movement room hosts yoga, stretching, and strength sessions. Guided ice bathing takes place in the natural swimming pond through winter. Breathwork and meditation sessions round out the on-site programme.

Gastronomy
Stefan Lechleitner cooks a daily changing four-course gourmet menu rooted in the Salzburg region. Every cut matters. The kitchen follows a nose-to-tail philosophy, working whole animals from local producers to minimise waste. Dishes are honest, seasonally inspired, and prepared with what Haus Jausern calls "great passion for detail."
The Roots and Paths Chef's Table is the signature evening. Host Lilly and Stefan guide a small group through courses that trace ingredients back to their origin. Breakfast follows the same conviction. No single-use packaging lines the buffet. Bulk purchasing keeps waste near zero. Leftover bread becomes cake. Fruit scraps turn into smoothies. Vegetarian, vegan, and cooked-to-order egg dishes fill out the morning spread.

Sustainability at Haus Jausern
"For us, sustainability isn't a trend, it's a conviction." Haus Jausern built its approach around respect for the valley it sits in. Regional supply chains keep transport routes short. Nose-to-tail cooking honours the whole animal. The near-zero-waste breakfast buffet eliminates single-use packaging entirely, with leftovers repurposed into smoothies, cakes, and muffins.
Solar panels on the roof generate the hotel's own power. A heat recovery system captures energy from ventilation. Every guest receives a free Salzburg mobility ticket covering all regional public transport, including the journey from the state border. Free shuttle pick-ups run from Maishofen-Saalbach and Zell am See train stations. Rooms use untreated wood for a healthy indoor climate. EV charging stations sit in the underground car park.

Rooms
Natural wood runs through every room — untreated surfaces, timber floors, and the warm textures of an original Austrian farmhouse extended in 2021. Options range from compact doubles and character rooms in the historic building to spacious suites and the design-led Avantgardist in the new wing, plus a two-bedroom Deluxe Suite with a balcony daybed for families or groups. Balconies throughout make the most of the mountain outlook.
