About Haus Elisabeth
Our apartment house has been welcoming guests from all over the world for over 30 years! We have the right apartment for every guest - whether travelling alone, with friends or family. In summer or in winter. With garden or mountain view. For sports enthusiasts or those seeking peace and quiet.
Hospitality for over 30 years
In the 1980s, Elisabeth's parents had the opportunity to buy the ageing "Haus Rochus". Another ten years later, the building was demolished and reopened as a house facilitating six individual apartments. We have been renting out our apartments to guests from all over the world since 1993!
Obergurgl: a unique destination in the Alps
At 1930 metres, Obergurgl is the highest church village in Europe - and is one of the most snow-sure places in the Alps. You can ski here from November to April! The first drag lift was built in Obergurgl back in 1949. In the 1960s, the Timmelsjoch High Alpine Road was added and more and more hotels opened. Today, Obergurgl with its many three-thousand metre peaks is a popular retreat in the Alps: in winter for skiing, tobogganing and snowshoeing, in summer for trail running, climbing and high alpine hikes.

Discover our centrally yet quietly located and lovingly furnished apartments in the centre of Obergurgl.
Central and yet quiet
Our apartment house scores with its great location in Gurgl - central yet quiet! Just a few minutes' walk from the village centre, between the ski lift and the Zirbenwald nature reserve. While in winter you can ski right up to the front door, in summer you can start your hike right outside Haus Elisabeth!
Elisabeth's personal recommendations
Host Elisabeth is not only a native of Gurgl, but also a passionate skier and mountaineer. Here she recommends her favourite places in her homeland:
Hohe Mut – the view of the mountains and glaciers never ceases to fascinate me!
Gaisbergtal – one of the most beautiful high valleys in our region, with Hochfirst, Liebenerspitze and the Kirchenkogel with its crystal wall.
Naturdenkmal Zirbenwald – it smells so good here in summer!
Ramolhaus-Piccardbrücke-Langtalereckhütte-Schönwieshütte – a challenging full-day hike that is well worth it!
Rote 12 & Schwarze 11 – my favourite slopes when I'm not on touring skis.
