Unique experiences, organic cuisine, and accommodations in various categories
The "Bio- & Nationalpark Refugium Schmilka" is a vacation and leisure retreat located in the small, former boatmen's village of Schmilka. It is distinguished by its commitment to organic principles.

It is what is known as an “Alberghi Diffusi” (from the Italian: scattered hotel). This means that the rooms, apartments, vacation rentals, and vacation homes, as well as the reception area, restaurants, event venues, and workshops, are not all housed in a single building. Instead, they are spread throughout the village of Schmilka.

During the winter months, from mid-November to mid-March, Schmilka transforms into a winter village. The Mühlenhof becomes the central gathering place, where guests can enjoy mulled wine by the campfire. The bath attendant invites guests to take a dip in the heated tubs and enjoy a sauna infusion in the bathhouse. Delicious meals are served in the Mühlenstube, and the certified organic bakery is filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread. A cozy atmosphere is created by subdued lighting, glowing Herrnhut stars, and a crackling fireplace. The Schmilka Winter Village offers a variety of experiential and wellness activities, referred to as “rituals.”
