The Fichtenhof Restaurant was founded in 1964 by Josef and Straudl Pardatscher as a small inn when they noticed that more and more hikers were exploring the surrounding forests. The old farmhouse lies at about 1,300 metres above sea level in the peaceful atmosphere of the mountain village of Gfrill.
With the support of all family members, the restaurant developed over the years and its excellent cuisine became increasingly well known, also thanks to the establishment of the Trudner Horn Nature Park in 1980. Typical South Tyrolean dishes, homemade and prepared with local ingredients, can be enjoyed here among wide meadows and quiet forests.
To further contribute to tackling climate change, we make use of our own resources such as wood from the maintenance of our forests and solar energy. These are used both for cooking on a wood-fired stove and for heating with a log-burning furnace.
A strong connection to the local area has always characterised the family business, which relies on a network of local and environmentally conscious suppliers and producers. This remains the key to creating flavourful dishes and reflects the deep respect for animals and nature.
In recognition of the family’s daily commitment, the restaurant was included in the guide Slow Food Osterie d’Italia in 2003. Among the many varied dishes prepared by chef Ingrid are homemade maltagliati, Schlutzer filled with ricotta, venison goulash, Graukäse from the Ahrntal and a selection of desserts prepared fresh every day. The highlight is the traditional dumplings, which bring together all the flavours of the region.
Let us discover the joy of cooking together.
During your holiday I am happy to take the time to cook together with you and your children, whether it is dumplings, ravioli, traditional rye bread or sweet “Buchteln” and apple strudel. Simple yet timeless dishes that you can easily recreate at home. You will take home a wonderful memory and I am always delighted when guests later send me photos of their creations.
The restaurant is also open to external guests at the following times: 12.00 – 14.00 / 19.00 – 21.00
Monday closed. Reservation recommended.
