A VISIONARY JOURNEY FROM GLOBAL INSPIRATION TO ALPINE CREATION

For Amelie and Dominik Posch, LaPosch represents more than a holiday destination. With deep roots in Tyrolean hospitality and a love for nature, they embarked on this heartfelt project in 2008, making it one of the first of its kind in the region.

Their inspiration came from travels to places like Namibia and Patagonia. "In Namibia, we were fascinated by the idea of life right by the water. We loved how nature, in all its raw elements, could be brought so close," they recall. This sparked their vision of chalets by a natural swimming lake, blending global inspiration with Tyrolean heritage.

"We wanted to build more than just a holiday destination; we wanted to offer a private mountain escape where comfort, authenticity, and relaxation come together. We wanted to create a place where people could reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with the people they love."

With love, passion, and genuine warmth, they dedicate themselves to the wishes and needs of their guests. Their goal is to surprise, inspire, and share their little paradise—the beauty of nature and the spirit of Tyrol—in a way that captures hearts, just as it did theirs.

Over the years, LaPosch has grown into a true holiday home with 16 unique chalets, not driven by the idea of "bigger, faster, more," but by the understanding that the meaning of luxury has changed. Today, it's about authenticity, simplicity, and feeling truly at ease.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF ALPINE DESIGN WHERE TRADITION MEETS MODERN ELEGANCE

The design of LaPosch was born from a dream—the personal vision of Amelie and Dominik. Inspired by the powerful simplicity of alpine life and the cozy warmth of "hygge" living, they created a place that feels both grounded and luxurious. Their goal was to bring to life a retreat where natural materials, traditional craftsmanship, and clean, modern lines come together in harmony. Each chalet is individually designed, blending rustic charm with thoughtful elegance, always with a focus on comfort, coziness, and closeness to nature.

The LaPosch chalet village evolved over several years, shaped and guided by the vision and personal inspiration of its hosts. From the very beginning, every design decision came from the heart, rooted in their passion for nature, detail, and authentic hospitality.

The plan was born to place new chalets directly by a natural swimming lake. These houses were intended to feel more modern than the existing ones, while still staying true to the alpine spirit. Each one was designed individually, but key elements were fixed across all of them: two stories, a spacious mountain-view sauna, and immediate access to the lake.

"For the new chalets, we planned some charming details that bring back the feel of earlier times. We included things like authentic toggle light switches, vintage-style cable sheaths, and quirky toilet roll holders," they share.

"This balance between modern design and nostalgic flair has become a signature part of LaPosch's evolving identity—a retreat shaped by dreams, travels, and a deep love for storytelling through design."

NATURAL WELLNESS THAT EMERGES FROM THE ALPINE ENVIRONMENT

Wellness at LaPosch emerges naturally from the environment. It's in the fresh alpine air, the warmth of wood underfoot, the quiet of a private sauna, or the stillness of a lake view terrace.

What unites LaPosch guests is the desire for true privacy, without having to sacrifice the comforts of a full pampering experience. Whether it's breakfast delivered to the door, a private sauna session, or personalized concierge service, guests enjoy the best of both worlds: seclusion and luxury.

Spring at LaPosch brings a particularly enchanting energy, with snow still lingering on high peaks while the valley blooms below. Mornings fill with soft light and the scent of earth awakening, inviting guests to wander trails, cycle through the Zugspitz Arena, or simply breathe in the season's gentle renewal.

DISCOVERING THE HIDDEN TREASURES OF THE TYROLEAN ZUGSPITZ ARENA

While LaPosch feels like a world apart, the surrounding Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena is rich with natural and cultural gems. Along the Loisach river, you'll find beautiful, peaceful spots and small oases where you can unwind and reconnect with nature.

LaPosch attracts travelers who value privacy, individuality, and authentic experiences. Many guests are couples, nature lovers, or families seeking a peaceful retreat away from the everyday. "Our guests appreciate thoughtful design, personal touches, and the luxury of slowing down in a world that rarely gives us permission to do so," they share. "Whether they come for a romantic getaway, a digital detox, or a quiet holiday with loved ones, we aim to create a space that feels like a personal sanctuary in the heart of nature."

With private chalets and personalized services like a dedicated concierge who takes care of every wish, LaPosch offers seclusion without sacrificing comfort. Days might start with coffee on a sun-dappled terrace as the mountains glow in the morning light, followed by a hike along the Loisach river or a quiet afternoon by the fire.

Whether hiking, cycling, or simply exploring, there are countless secret places off the beaten path just waiting to be found in this remarkable alpine world that the Posches have so lovingly introduced to their guests.

"For those seeking freedom from noise and the chance to feel at home in the world again, LaPosch offers more than just a stay; it promises a profound journey into the heart of alpine serenity—a personal sanctuary in the heart of nature."

As for the future, they have some very exciting news planned for 2026! While they can't reveal details just yet, they promise it's something special and worth waiting for.
