Farm in the Alpine region against a mountain backdrop

Farm holidays in the Alps: 277 farms across three countries

The Alps don't respect national borders, and neither do most people who come here for a holiday. This page therefore compiles all the farms in the Alpine region: 185 in Austria, 75 in Italy, and 21 in Germany. By federal state, Salzburg (78) and Trentino-South Tyrol (69) are most represented, followed by Carinthia (38) and Tyrol (35).

What these 277 farms have in common is their altitude: 267 of them are located in the mountains, 136 are managed as mountain farms, and 131 are dairy farms. The steep terrain, the short summer, and the alpine pastures above shape daily life, and that's exactly what you'll experience as a guest.

Two full seasons instead of one

Summer: 240 farms

229 businesses have a hiking trail right outside their door, 211 have a cycle path . 138 offer swimming facilities , often a mountain lake nearby.

The alpine summer is the time when the animals are up on the mountain pastures. 60 of the farms offer alpine holidays , and on 125 you can help with the hay harvest , which here lasts until August depending on the altitude.

Winter: 224 farms

Almost on par with summer, and that's unique on the portal. 194 farms are located near ski resorts , 188 offer tobogganing , 170 cross-country skiing , 169 ski touring , and 130 ice skating .

27 farms are located directly on the ski slope . And in winter, the animals are kept in the barn, which is often more accessible for children than the wide pasture in summer.

More than half of all awards on the portal go to the Alps: 29 of the 50 top farms of 2026 and 64 of the 106 premium farms. With 277 out of 1,044 businesses, that's a remarkably high proportion. The mountain farmers seem to know a thing or two about hospitality.

And my favorite detail: 166 of these farms have a herb garden. In a region with a short growing season, that says a lot about how serious people here are about growing their own food.

The equipment in numbers

To give you an idea of ​​what to expect, we've counted all 277 farms on this page:

Frequently asked questions about farm holidays in the Alps

The entire Alpine region, regardless of national borders. 185 farms are located in Austria , 75 in Italy , primarily in South Tyrol and Trentino, and 21 in Germany , mainly in the Allgäu and Upper Bavaria. Switzerland is represented by a few farms; you can find more information on their respective country pages.

A farm that primarily operates on a hillside, with steep slopes, a short growing season, and usually an alpine pasture above. 136 of the 277 farms on this page are managed this way. For you, this means: the work is visible and seasonal, the hay is often still harvested with specialized machinery or by hand, and the animals move to the alpine pastures in the summer. If you'd like to experience this firsthand, you can find farms with their own alpine pasture management under "Alpine Pasture Holidays" .

The range of activities is almost equally extensive: 240 farms are open in summer, 224 in winter. In summer, the animals are on the alpine pastures, and there's haymaking and hiking. In winter, the animals are kept in barns and are more accessible for children. In addition, there's skiing on 194 farms, tobogganing on 188, and cross-country skiing on 170. Those who have experienced both usually come back for more.

227 of the 277 farms are family-friendly , 221 have a playground , and 114 have a petting zoo . Two things are worth asking about: how steep the path to the farm is and where exactly the machinery operates. Neither of these is included in any filter, and the hosts will tell you precisely.

Better than the mountain location would suggest. 150 of the farms are accessible by bus and 144 by bicycle . For the last few kilometers, it's worth asking about pick-up from the train station; many families in this area offer this service. A special case are the farms you reach by cable car ; there are twelve of these across the portal.

29 of the 50 top farms of 2026 and 64 of the 106 premium farms are located in the Alpine region, even though it accounts for only about a quarter of all farms. We don't have a definitive explanation for this. It's likely that farm holidays have the longest tradition here, and many farms have been welcoming guests for decades. The average rating of 4.8 from over 26,000 guest reviews certainly speaks for itself.

Swimming facilities are listed for 138 farms, usually a mountain lake or outdoor pool nearby. 29 farms have their own outdoor pool ; this is exceptional in this region and is due to the short season. Those seeking safe swimming are better off in the southern Alps, for example in Carinthia with its warm lakes.
