ROBERTO MILANI<br />

People like coming to Roberto Milani.<br />

A session with him leaves them feeling<br />

deeply relaxed and satisfied. He is the<br />

spa manager at Bad Moos, responsible<br />

for over 2,000 square metres of pure<br />

well-being. Roberto started as a masseur<br />

in 2014, meaning that he worked with<br />

the unforgettable late owner Erwin<br />

Lanzinger. Over the years, he completed<br />

several additional training courses<br />

and eventually became the head<br />

of the entire spa area, overseeing its<br />

continuous improvement and expansion.<br />

In Roberto’s world, a lot revolves around<br />

water. And not just any water, but water<br />

from the hotel’s own St. Valentin’s spring.<br />

“We use the water in three different<br />

ways: First, for the drinking cure, using<br />

various springs around the hotel, then<br />

for steam baths for inhalation and to<br />

strengthen the respiratory tract in the<br />

Bagno Turco. Thermal baths are the<br />

third application; they strengthen the<br />

skin and hair and also the muscles.” The<br />

spring water has also been found to help<br />

with psoriasis.<br />

Naturally, someone like Roberto, who<br />

has so much to do with health and<br />

well-being, is also active in his free time.<br />

“I love to hike in the area and unwind<br />

while doing so. When you grow up in<br />

the mountains like I did, surrounded by<br />

beautiful nature, you appreciate it. And<br />

there are so many beautiful places here.”<br />

The Three Peaks, with their azure blue sky, lush green Alpine meadows, and<br />

gleaming white dolomite rock, are a remarkably beautiful sight and have<br />

been captured in thousands of pictures. Mountain enthusiasts have always<br />

been drawn to the three craggy peaks – known as the Cima Piccola/Kleine<br />

Zinne (small peak), Cima Occidentale/Westliche Zinne (western peak),<br />

and Cima Grande/ Große Zinne (big peak). Climbers have been seeking<br />

out the 2,999m Cima Grande/Große Zinne since the first ascent in 1869,<br />

making the mountain massif one of the most popular destinations in the<br />

Alps. But the UNESCO World Heritage site is not just for experienced<br />

climbers; an easy circular hike takes you through the 11-hectare Three<br />

Peaks Nature Park in just four hours, allowing you to experience its scenic<br />

uniqueness and magical beauty up close.<br />

10 USEFUL TIPS FOR<br />

PROSPECTIVE MOUNTAINEERS<br />

20


SO THAT YOU CAN CONC<strong>EN</strong>TRATE<br />

ON WHAT MATTERS,<br />

HERE ARE OUR MOST<br />

IMPORTANT TIPS:<br />

1. Choose a suitable tour for your fitness level and the time of year.<br />

2. Familiarise yourself with the route: Get maps and tips.<br />

3. Check the weather conditions and remember that mountain weather<br />

can change quickly.<br />

4. Bring plenty of provisions: Dried fruit, nuts, bananas, and wholegrain<br />

bread provide energy.<br />

5. Refreshing water or warming tea is essential for staying hydrated.<br />

6. Wear suitable footwear with a non-slip sole that gives you support<br />

and protects you from injury.<br />

7. Choose clothes that give you freedom of movement, keep you warm<br />

or cool enough, and are breathable.<br />

8. Dress according to the onion principle: With many layers. For the<br />

bottom layer, it’s best to wear Merino wool or dry-fit material.<br />

9. Set off early on your hike: The mountains can be dangerous after<br />

sundown.<br />

10. Respect nature, i.e. dispose of rubbish at home, avoid noise, and<br />

respect plants and wildlife.<br />

PS: MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THE EMERG<strong>EN</strong>CY NUMBER IN YOUR<br />

PHONE AND INFORM AT LEAST ONE PERSON OF YOUR EXACT<br />

ITINERARY AS A PRECAUTION.<br />

CLASSICS<br />

44


GIOVANNI TOGNI<br />

Giovanni Togni, the head chef at Bad<br />

Moos since 2021, has a passion for<br />

combining modernity with tradition. He<br />

grew up in Lombardy and loves to treat<br />

guests to a blend of tempting Alpine<br />

and Mediterranean delicacies after an<br />

eventful day. “Take bread dumplings,<br />

for example, you don’t always have to<br />

enhance them with speck, liver, or cheese.<br />

Spinach, pumpkin, or mushrooms are<br />

also very complementary,” says Giovanni.<br />

Giovanni takes pride in his Feel Good<br />

menus, which consist of well-balanced<br />

meals made with high-quality ingredients<br />

that do not put unnecessary strain on<br />

the digestive system. You’ll feel the<br />

effects of this healthy eating in no time,<br />

experiencing a new sense of lightness.<br />

“Pamper yourself with healthy, natural,<br />

and high-quality ingredients to improve<br />

your quality of life,” suggests Giovanni.<br />

Many of the wholesome ingredients<br />

come from local farmers. At Bad Moos,<br />

we have been working with producers<br />

from the surrounding area for many years,<br />

building mutual trust. The chef is also<br />

a keen mushroom forager and enjoys<br />

summer hikes and winter skiing and ski<br />

tours as a way to relax from his work in<br />

the kitchen. “We also live in a privileged<br />

location here; we have everything on<br />

our doorstep,” he says. So, what are his<br />

favourite dishes? “The classics that have<br />

never gone out of fashion. Barley soup,<br />

Gröstl – a speck, onion, and potato fryup<br />

– and kraut, those are among my<br />

personal favourites.”<br />

DID YOU<br />

KNOW...<br />

... that farmers used to sleep on a bed<br />

of hay after a long day’s work? This<br />

was not only comfortable but also<br />

incredibly relaxing due to the herbs<br />

in the hay. The scent and essential<br />

oils of these herbs, activated by body<br />

heat, helped to clear the respiratory<br />

tract, reduce stress, and boost the<br />

immune system. A real treat for body<br />

and mind.<br />

49


True luxury comes from embracing<br />

nature’s wellness and well-being<br />

offerings. Here at Bad Moos, it is<br />

not only the magnificent views of<br />

the most beautiful mountains in the<br />

world that make you look radiant<br />

but also the exclusive treatments<br />

and therapies in the Soma & Anima<br />

Spa. Our use of essential oils, herbal<br />

OUR BEAUTY<br />

TIP FOR AT<br />

Do you wake up to puffy eyes and<br />

dark circles every morning? Is your<br />

skin dry and dull? Try drinking a<br />

large glass of lukewarm water on<br />

an empty stomach to start your<br />

day. This will not only replenish<br />

your body’s moisture levels, which<br />

are depleted overnight, but also<br />

improve your digestion and many<br />

other bodily functions. It’s like a<br />

miracle cure!<br />

THE CHARLIE<br />

54


CARLO DI GIOIA<br />

Meet Carlo di Gioia, affectionately<br />

known as Charlie to our guests. He is<br />

an expert in all things beautiful. Erwin<br />

Lanzinger hired him in 2014 to design<br />

the new spa area at Bad Moos. Carlo<br />

soon became a highly esteemed sauna<br />

expert and the inventor of the Danza<br />

Aromatica. “Danza is a special form of<br />

infusion that involves lower temperatures,<br />

which create a warmer and more<br />

comforting experience for the body. To<br />

add to the ambience, classical music<br />

and film music with legendary works by<br />

Ennio Morricone are played, creating a<br />

special harmony,” he reveals.<br />

For the spring to autumn period, when<br />

more guests are drawn to the outdoors,<br />

Charlie organised a wide variety of outdoor<br />

activities. These include popular<br />

excursions, such as that to the Locatelli<br />

mountain hut at the base of the Three<br />

Peaks, as well as lesser-known trails like<br />

the one leading up to Monte Casella.<br />

Charlie’s outdoor programmes have<br />

now expanded to be available throughout<br />

the year and offer a wider variety of<br />

options than ever before. Some of the<br />

newer offerings include snowmobile rides<br />

to view the sunrise at the Three Peaks,<br />

tobogganing with a stop at a mountain<br />

hut, and helicopter tours to explore the<br />

Dolomites. Charlie is passionate about<br />

helping people forget the stress of the<br />

everyday and indulge in the pleasures<br />

of life. As a certified wine and cheese<br />

sommelier, he knows exactly how to live<br />

life to the fullest.<br />

FROM A SMALL FARM<br />

BATHHOUSE TO A<br />

MODERN WELLNESS<br />

C<strong>EN</strong>TRE.<br />

The bathing springs at Bad Moos have been a popular<br />

destination for over 350 years. The first bathhouse was<br />

built in 1800, but it experienced its boom in the 19th<br />

century when tourism took hold of Val Pusteria/Pustertal.<br />

At the beginning of the 20th century, the stately inn<br />

offered bathing and drinking cures from three springs,<br />

of which the St. Valentin sulphur spring, recognised as<br />

a mineral water source, is still in use today. In 2005,<br />

Dr Erwin Lanzinger, a true pioneer of tourism in Alta<br />

Pusteria/Hochpustertal, revived the old “Bauernbadl”<br />

farm bath house and made it what it is today: One of<br />

the leading wellness and well-being oases in the Alps.<br />

PS:<br />

Did you know that the Bad Moos Aqua<br />

Spa Resort is one of only five hotels in<br />

South Tyrol to hold a spa cure licence?<br />

ARRIVING AT BAD<br />

MOOS IS LIKE<br />

COMING HOME<br />

64


BRIGITTE MAIR<br />

Brigitte Mair has been part of Bad<br />

Moos for over 40 years. The Sexten<br />

native started as a receptionist at<br />

the age of 17. Today she manages the<br />

reception and has a lot to do in the back<br />

office. Despite her busy schedule, she still<br />

interacts with guests, bringing a wealth<br />

of experience to the table.<br />

Over time, a lot has changed, and many<br />

things have happened. “The hotel has<br />

grown significantly since its early days<br />

as a sports hotel. It has been enlarged<br />

and improved, and the Mühlenhof was<br />

added across the street,” she recalls.<br />

While some may reminisce about the<br />

good old days, many things have also<br />

improved. Over the years, the hotel has<br />

welcomed numerous holidaymakers<br />

who have become regulars and even<br />

friends. “You get to know the guests; you<br />

know what is important to them, what<br />

special wishes they have,” says Brigitte<br />

Mair. Based on this knowledge, Brigitte<br />

and her colleagues prepare everything<br />

accordingly. “It is important to us that<br />

our guests feel welcome and that their<br />

arrival feels like a homecoming,” she<br />

adds.<br />

Many guests come to Bad Moos to<br />

recover from the stress of everyday<br />

life. The more demanding their lives<br />

are at home, the more important it is to<br />

have an oasis like Bad Moos as a place<br />

of retreat. The unique combination of<br />

nature, outdoor experiences, wellness,<br />

comfort, and exceptional cuisine works<br />

wonders against stress. Even if the<br />

journey was tiring, arriving at Bad Moos<br />

feels like coming home and provides<br />

solace for body and soul.<br />

WE PAY ATT<strong>EN</strong>TION<br />

TO DETAIL.<br />

EVERYWHERE<br />

AND ALWAYS.<br />

Legend has it that during the full moon,<br />

two deer would come to drink from the<br />

Bad Moos sulphur water spring. They<br />

grew to become the strongest and largest<br />

in the area. Unfortunately, conflict and<br />

chaos drove them away, leaving only<br />

the resort’s logo as a reminder of their<br />

once-mighty presence. However, almost<br />

two decades ago, we made a joyous<br />

discovery: The deer have returned and<br />

are happily roaming the forests around<br />

our spring once again.<br />

A CONCEPT IN<br />

WHICH EVERYTHING<br />

FLOWS TOGETHER<br />

66


At Bad Moos, water is our source of<br />

strength and inspiration, whether it’s<br />

bubbling from our sulphur spring or<br />

forming snow crystals on the surrounding<br />

mountains. We’ve embraced this element<br />

wholeheartedly, which is why we’ve<br />

chosen “Aqua Spa Resort” as our new<br />

tagline. By emphasising water as our<br />

core competency, we aim to convey the<br />

rejuvenation and relaxation that you’ll<br />

experience during your stay with us.<br />

FROM THE HEART<br />

Since its reopening in 2005, our hotel<br />

has undergone significant changes. Not<br />

only have external factors evolved, but<br />

we have also witnessed changes in travel<br />

trends and guest demands. Despite<br />

our growth, holiday durations have<br />

shortened, and people now often want<br />

to experience more in less time.<br />

Many people are drawn to South<br />

Tyrol’s unique blend of Alpine and<br />

Mediterranean flair. At Bad Moos Aqua<br />

Spa Resort, we share this appreciation<br />

and have always aimed to provide a<br />

holiday experience that embodies both<br />

the welcoming atmosphere of South<br />

Tyrol and the relaxed ambience of the<br />

Mediterranean.<br />

Most people dream of spending a few<br />

carefree days away from their busy<br />

schedules – and we provide just that.<br />

With us, they can immerse themselves<br />

in a world of soothing relaxation,<br />

unforgettable activities, a comfortable<br />

ambience, and exquisite culinary delights.<br />

Everyone can be exactly who they are<br />

here – no ifs or buts. A holiday of pure<br />

freedom.<br />
