+39 0471 354 195Known by locals as the “Unterwirt”, the Zum Hirschen Hotel and Restaurant has long been a beloved and well-established destination. For fifth generations, the women of the Oberkofler family have managed the hotel and restaurant, placing a strong emphasis on blending gastronomy with agriculture. They take pride in using seasonal produce from their own farm and meat from animals they raise themselves. Their approach has earned them recognition: the Zum Hirschen is one of only twelve establishments in South Tyrol to receive the “GSTC” certificate and the prestigious Michelin Green Star 2022 for sustainable cooking and management. Guests can enjoy farm-raised meat specialities and dishes made from high-quality local ingredients, all prepared with innovative and creative flair.
The host family
Now in its fifth generation, the Oberkofler women – sisters Maria, Petra and Ulrike, along with their mother Maria Luise – run the business with great dedication. Each brings her own unique ideas to the table. Meanwhile, son Georg manage the farm and care for the animals.
