Roots & values

The Forsthofgut has been here for 400 years, and the Schmuck Family has run the business for five generations. During this time, the business has developed from a forestry operation to a simple guesthouse and then to a 5-star nature hotel. This path has been marked by courage, sensitivity, and vision, the passion for hospitality, and the sense of responsibility for our homeland. We carry these values forward in the Forsthofgut.
