Welcome at our Waldharthof
Farm holidays in Brixen
A warm welcome at the Waldharthof, for your farm holiday! Our farm is located in sunny South Tyrol, near the town of Brixen, located in the small village of Raas.
The landscape of the Eisack valley meet so many holiday wishes than any other region: graceful middle ridge and gentle apple orchards and vineyards, picturesque meadows and dense forests, next to bustling, cosmopolitan cities like Brixen and Bozen. An ideal starting point for hikers and mountain bikers here you enjoy warm sunshine and Mediterranean temperatures. In winter, skiers can reach the mountain Plose or the Gitschberg ski area in just a short time. Snow rich pastures make the hearts of snowshoe hikers, sledders and skiers beat faster.
Known for its Mediterranean alpine climate and the nutrient-rich mineral soils of Eisack valley we devote all our passion to orchards and vineyards. We live agriculture and are pleased to share this with familiar friends, new users and especially with our younger guests, spending an unforgettable time. Family, tradition, delicacies from garden and field, warm hospitality and a lot of joy, that is what we are: your family Tauber.

The apple farm near Brixen
Our apple farm
At the Waldharthof different apple varieties are grown at an altitude of approximately 800 to 900 meters above sea level. Around 300 sunny days, mild climate and fertile soils provide the optimum conditions for apple growing. Warm days and cool nights during late summer give the apples the red cheeks and valuable vitamins and flavorings. Site and soil determine the location of the variety in order to achieve the highest quality in taste, appearance, and crispness. In the management of our orchards, we rely on the natural equilibrium between soil and plants and pests and beneficials.

A fun animal experience at the Waldharthof
Holidays with animals
Farmtour with lama trekking in South Tyrol
Your family holiday with us is an animal experience. Quacking ducks run across the yard and hide in the apple orchards in front of Grandma Fane. Our lovely Melli neighs, runs excitedly her rounds and cannot wait to get out with the kids. Dwarf rabbits hide shyly in the barn, while our llamas relish in the sun. Those who listen carefully will also perceive the grunt of the little greedy pigs, while next door twenty hardworking hens daily hide an egg. Whoever believes to have discovered all animals, is wrong, because even flatters a kitten to call your attention and wants to be petted.
