Welcome to Arabella Alpenhotel am Spitzingsee, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Discover Spitzingsee from our hotel in Bavaria, Germany

At 1,100 meters, high above everyday life, a world of calm and strength opens up at Lake Spitzing. In summer, wide trails, clear mountain air, and cool waters invite exploration; in winter, snow and silence transform the landscape into a glowing fairytale. Adventure seekers discover challenges and moments of pure joy: summit routes, forest trails, ski slopes, and quiet paths that quicken the pulse. Couples find moments that draw them closer—walks along the shore, shared views, evenings that linger. Families uncover small adventures that create lasting bonds: skipping stones, following snow tracks, wondering and laughing together. Traditional alpine cuisine warms heart and soul, while the AlpenSpa offers soothing relaxation after a day full of experiences. A place where true memories grow and everyone finds their moment. Morning mist dances above the lake, evening alpenglow paints the peaks—between them lie moments that stay. Arrive and breathe. Simply here.

Spitzingsee, a Historic Mountain Village

Spitzingsee's rich history unfolds at Arabella Alpenhotel. Established in 1720, the Alte Wurzhütte distilled Gentian schnapps and became a local icon. In 1890, skiing began here, while 1919 saw the Bockerlbahn built to clear storm-damaged trees. The iconic St. Bernard Church was inaugurated in 1937, and plans for a 1942 energy-generating dam were never realized. In 1950, the first chairlift and cable car opened, marking a new era. The 1970s brought significant expansion, including the Spitzingsee Hotel. Today, Spitzingsee boasts a modernized ski resort and a fascinating history, inviting you to be part of its legacy at Arabella Alpenhotel.
