Natural Luxury: the ADLER Ritten Concept
When the ADLER Ritten opened in June 2019 on the Renon, a luxurious retreat inspired by the South Tyrolean mountains was created. Here, relaxation, enjoyment, and environmental awareness go hand in hand. The story of how it came to be starts with a special vision.
Location and Region: Discover the Renon Plateau in South Tyrol
The ADLER Ritten sits at an elevation of approximately 1,200 meters, nestled among the natural beauty of the Ritten plateau. Here, you can enjoy a unique view of the Dolomites while the lively city of Bolzano is just a cable car ride away. The location combines alpine tranquility with urban accessibility, making the region a popular retreat for centuries.
The ADLER SPA: Wellness in Tune with the Forest
Space to breathe, time to relax, and individual freedom—that’s what makes the ADLER Ritten spa special. As you gaze into the distance from the main lodge, you can unwind in the panoramic pool or in one of the cozy relaxation rooms. The Forest Spa, not far away, seems to blend in with the old larch trees as if it had always been there. Its wood and glass architecture connects you intensely with nature.
Culinary Delights Rooted in the Region
At the ADLER Ritten, cuisine is inextricably linked to South Tyrol’s nature and culture. The farm-to-table concept ensures that guests experience the region’s flavors in their purest form. Fresh ingredients, many of which come from the lodge’s own farm garden, are transformed into creative dishes by the chefs.
