Pine love & the power of nature in the HOCHKÖNIGIN
Swiss stone pine: the scent of well-being
Swiss stone pine is not a trend. It is a way of life. Scientifically proven, traditionally tried and tested and quite honestly: incredibly pleasant. The scent of Swiss stone pine has a relaxing effect, lowers the heart rate and has been proven to improve the quality of sleep. And because good sleep is the basis for everything - for a good mood, strong immune system, a stable nervous system - Swiss stone pine is not just a design statement for us, but an integral part of our concept for regeneration, natural wellness and conscious retreat.
Why good sleep is worth its weight in gold
Sleep is our secret superpower. While you dream, the body regenerates, the brain processes information, cells repair themselves - in short: healthy sleep is the basis for a long, healthy life. Studies show that poor sleep is linked to many health problems - from immune deficiencies to chronic illnesses.
That's why we at the HOCHKÖNIGIN rely on a holistic sleep concept: Swiss stone pine rooms, natural materials, no unnecessary electrosmog and an environment that invites you to rest. Perfect for anyone who wants to escape the hustle and bustle, calm down and find their inner balance.
Because yes: sleep retreats are not a trend for us - they are at the heart of our philosophy.
Longevity: the art of living a long and healthy life
“Longevity” - it sounds international, but it's quite simple: it's about living a healthy, vital and happy life for as long as possible. And this is exactly what we promote at the HOCHKÖNIGIN in a natural way:
- with moving nature experiences in the mountains around Maria Alm
- with honest organic cuisine - regional, nutritious, conscious
- with mindful wellness rituals, massages & treatments
- with lots of Swiss stone pine, peace and quiet and plenty of fresh mountain air
Because the path to a long, healthy life begins with small steps. With moments of silence. With a deep breath in the Swiss stone pine room. With a good conversation. And with the decision to say more often: “Today I'm taking time - for myself.”
Health that is nurtured every day - that's what we call health & wellness for every day.
What is it that smells so wonderfully of forest and security?
Come in, take a deep breath - and you'll know immediately: this is where the Swiss stone pine lives.
Its scent? Like a hug from a tree. Warm, calming, grounding. For some guests, it is the first conscious moment of slowing down. For others: a reunion with their childhood in their grandparents' farmhouse.
For us? Clearly: the queen of wood. And a silent therapist.
Swiss stone pine for the senses - but with feeling, please!
Scent is emotion. And Swiss stone pine is particularly sensitive. A few molecules are enough - and our heart beats more slowly. The body says: Thank you for this break. That's why you'll find Swiss stone pine not only in your room, but also in the spa, in the relaxation room, with tea and in a small bottle to take home.
Swiss stone pine rituals? Absolutely. Because wellness starts with the details.
Daily Wellness - sounds like a lifestyle, but is part of our everyday life
Because health is not just a goal, but a daily companion.
Swiss stone pine. Silence. Exercise. Good nutrition. Breathing exercises. Conscious rituals.
This is how wellness becomes a habit - and life becomes a little bit better. Perhaps you can start here with us. And take a piece of it home with you.

Swiss stone pine schnapps & soulful spirits at the HIGH QUEEN BAR
And then... there's that moment in the evening. When the day comes to rest. When the Steinernes Meer outside is bathed in warm evening light. When conversations become quieter and gazes deepen. Then you meet at the HIGH QUEEN BAR - for a fine Swiss stone pine schnapps, hand-picked, homemade, full of alpine magic.
The taste? Like a walk through the stone pine forest. Spicy. Round. And with just the right touch of adventure. If you like, combine it with dark chocolate. Or a good conversation.
Our bartender knows them all: the variations, the insider tips, the favorite rituals. And sometimes the bottle also tells a little story - about old Swiss stone pines, their power and their history. Cheers to nature!
