Directly from the "Christina Tunnel" - Biomass cogeneration plant
Sustainable heat from wood chips - Efficient heat pumps
Maximum environmental friendliness - Negative CO₂ balance:
More green energy than consumption - Regionality
The best products from the Salzburg region
Hotel's own hydroelectric power plant – energy from our own source
Since 2018, the Taurach hydroelectric power plant has been supplying our resort with 100% green electricity. Together with the Austrian Federal Forestry Office, one of Austria's most modern power plants has been built – with the utmost respect for nature.
Facts & figures:
- Annual production: 7,500 MWh
- Nominal output: 2,100 kW
- Head: 145 m
- Technology: 6-nozzle Pelton turbine from Troyer
- Special feature: 420 m long "Christina tunnel"
Pure drinking water – fresh from nature
Crystal clear, rich in minerals and sourced directly from the Radstadt Tauern mountains: our own spring water takes decades to make its way through the rock. The result: the highest quality and an incomparable taste.
- 100% natural drinking water from the "Christina Tunnel"
- Direct supply to the entire resort without long transport routes
Heat pump & biomass cogeneration plant – heat from the ground & your own forest
The Lürzerhof has been committed to sustainable heating technology since 2008. The wood chip heating system uses wood from our own forest and, together with modern heat pumps, forms an unbeatable duo for sustainable heat generation.
- Peak output of wood chip heating: 600 kW
- Sustainable cycle: wood only releases stored CO₂ – renewable trees store it
- Efficient heat pumps: supplementary heat supply from natural energy sources
- Green electricity for heat pumps from our own hydroelectric power plant
- Consistent, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly all year round
CO₂ balance: Climate-positive vacation
At the Lürzerhof, we generate more than 7,500 megawatt hours of green electricity every year – 10 times our own consumption. This saves around 6,300 tons of CO₂ – a valuable contribution to a cleaner environment. Your wellness vacation thus becomes a sustainable experience.
- 100% self-sufficient energy supply
- More electricity produced than consumed
- Environmentally friendly heat supply without fossil fuels
Regionality – The best of the Salzburg region
- Short distances, absolute freshness: we rely on regional suppliers and first-class products from the surrounding area.
- The Lacknerhof also belongs to the Lürzerhof, with its own fish ponds and sheep – so we can treat our hotel guests to fresh fish and the traditional lamb dish "Das Schöpserne."
- Tradition meets quality: We also rely on local companies and long-standing partnerships for construction work.
- Securing jobs: Through our cooperation with regional businesses, we strengthen the local economy.
Sustainable holidays – even more ecological measures
- E-charging stations: 100% green electricity for your electric car (€25 per charge)
- Energy-efficient construction: Sustainable architecture in line with the latest standards
- LED lighting & intelligent technology management: Energy savings at the highest level
- Natural swimming ponds: A chemical-free swimming experience, completely in harmony with the environment
- Sustainability as a guiding principle: Every decision at the Lürzerhof is made with the environment in mind.
Enjoy sustainability. Vacation consciously. Experience Lürzerhof.
