Burning the Midnight Oil? Not with us!

The house you are sleeping in has been renovated sustainably. This means we changed it from an oil-heating system to pellet heating.
Pellet heating relies on renewable biomass (wood pellets) instead of fossil fuels like oil, making it a cleaner and more sustainable energy source. Pellet heating significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions compared to oil heating, as wood pellets are considered carbon-neutral when sourced sustainably.
Wood pellets are often made from sawmill byproducts, such as wood chips and sawdust, utilizing waste materials and promoting a circular economy. Visit the Scharnitz Museum, which focuses on the „Circle of Wood“, exploring the life cycle of wood and the sustainable management of forests. Situated near the Karwendel Nature Park, it highlights the region‘s rich forestry history, ecological significance, and sustainable practices reminding us to cherish nature’s contributions — so we can all „Just Breathe“ in a healthier, more sustainable world!
