The farm, known as Berndlhof, is located in the middle of Mitterberg, a climatic spa area. The village is actually called Zirting (800m above sea level) and is part of the municipal, Mitterberg – St. Martin. Our farm is situated in the tourism region, Schladming-Dachstein (Groebmingerland), which provides plenty of holiday activities. Thus, we are an ideal starting point for a recreational and/or adventurous summer and winter Holiday.

Our farm Berndlhof is an agricultural grassland farm with about 35 cattle. Up to 6 of them are cows, held for milk purposes (Berndlhof-Cheese) and the rest are calves of various ages. Additionally we have  two horses, two pigs and two cats. As mentioned above, part of our farm is a chalet called Kaltenbachalm, which we service for three months during the summer. We offer self-made products. Kaltenbachalm (1600m above sea level) is about 30km away from Berndlhof at the Soelkpass submontane. During the summer it is easily accessible by car and offers hiking opportunities at various difficulty levels, starting from lovely paths for families, to more advanced Trails.
