Genuine Hospitality Since 1972

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.
