Welcome to Wanderniki!
Since 1956 our hotel has stood there, nestled in an idyllic spot among the Carnic Alps. The reason it never wanted to leave? Because here, nature marches to its own beat – which is what you will also feel at Wanderniki, your hotel in Lesachtal. Regionality, a strong family bond, delicious cuisine, and wonderful hiking moments – we have always built on these four pillars.
Regional through and through
Cheese from the Jöhrerhof in Tscheltsch and home-baked Lesachtal bread on the breakfast table, regional treasures prepared with love, and water from our own mountain spring. Have you ever wondered how far your breakfast has travelled? With us, rarely more than a few kilometres – and the people who made it are usually the ones we have known since childhood.
