High in the Tyrolean Alps, LaPosch is a place of stillness, space, and thoughtful comfort. A private village of chalets nestled in nature, it offers a slower pace of living and a deep connection to the landscape. Each of the sixteen chalets has its own character and charm. Some sit beside the lake, others are tucked among trees or face the mountains. Built with wood, stone, and soft natural textures, the interiors feel calm and rooted. Nothing feels overly designed. Everything is simple, warm, and made to support rest.

Spring at LaPosch feels like a quiet awakening. Snow remains on the high peaks while the valley below begins to bloom. Mornings are filled with birdsong, soft light, and the scent of earth returning to life. You might start the day on the terrace, wander down a trail, or take your first bike ride of the year. There is no rush. Just an invitation to notice what’s around you. The days are longer, the air is lighter, and everything outside seems to be gently beginning again.

"We wanted to create a place where people could reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with the people they love.”

— Amelie and Dominik Posch, Owners of LaPosch

Each chalet is a home of your own. There are places to cook, read, soak, and be still. Some chalets have saunas, others have heated pools or views of the lake. You can open the windows and let the air in, or close them and curl up beside the fire. The atmosphere is always private and quiet, with just enough to make you feel taken care of without taking you out of the moment.

Food is approached with the same care as everything else. Breakfast is brought to your door, fresh and seasonal. In the afternoon there might be a homemade cake. Evenings are slow and flavorful, offering local ingredients prepared simply. You eat when you’re ready. There are no schedules to follow, only the gentle rhythm of appetite and rest.

Wellness is not a service here, but something that naturally happens. It’s in the fresh air, the mountain views, the warmth of wood under your feet. In your own time, you can take a sauna, have a long bath, or stretch in the quiet of your living room. There are no programs, no pressure. Just space to listen to what your body needs.

LaPosch is not a place that asks you to perform or plan. It offers a kind of freedom that is hard to find. Everything here is simple and full of care. It is made for people who appreciate quiet beauty, natural materials, and the feeling of being far away from noise. It is a place to return to yourself, to rest, and to feel at home in the world again.
