My Arbor
My Arbor is a tree hotel, built on stilts, high up in the tops of the surrounding trees. A refuge on the tree-covered mountainside of the Plose, in the middle of nature and just 10 minutes from Brixen (Bressanone) in South Tyrol. As the hotel name suggests, the My Idea plays an essential role. My Arbor guests are invited to find what often comes up short in hectic everyday life: time for themselves and the greatest possible freedom for their own rhythm. Guests can design their time individually: Breakfast until noon. Swimming after sunset. Yoga or hiking. Massage or skiing. Culture in the bishop's town of Brixen. Biking or shopping.

Philosophy
- My Arbor, my tree. The name of the hotel is full of meaning. A tree with strong roots, firmly anchored in nature and history - and yet open to the world. A tree that survives wind and weather as well as time and trends. A natural retreat that gives its guests a sense of security and safety. Living and sleeping in a soft nest in the treetops. My Arbor guests are invited to find there what often comes up short in hectic everyday life: time for arriving, time for being, time for the surrounding nature, time for oneself. This time can be shaped individually; in keeping with the My idea of My Arbor, every guest will find the answer to their own personal needs. Holidays without constraints with the greatest possible freedom for the guest's own rhythm. Breakfast until noon. Swimming after sunset. Yoga or hiking. Massage or skiing. Culture in the bishop's town of Brixen. Biking or shopping. The I may simply be I. At the tree hotel on the Plose.

Activities

- In winter, the mountain transforms into a modern skiing area between the Dolomites and the Sarntal Alps, ideal for winter hiking, sledding, and of course skiing. The Plose has the longest valley run in South Tyrol with the 9 km long Trametsch. Modern mountain cable cars quickly take guests up to 2,500 m in summer and winter.
