It is a precious habitat, home to both people and wildlife – a place where we can breathe deeply and reconnect with ourselves. And it is exactly this space we want to protect. How, you might ask?
Mountain pine grows not only in the Sarntal—the valley of mountain pines—but also on the acidic silicate soils of the Villanders Alp. The power of this mountain plant is remarkable. The soothing, pleasantly fragrant oil is suitable for relaxing baths, sauna infusions and wraps, or as an addition to body scrubs. Used in an aroma lamp, its scent helps improve the indoor atmosphere.
Status
On Mondays, a live distillation demonstration takes place. This gives all interested visitors an insight into how mountain pine (latsche) is processed into oil.
