Heidi-Hotel - The children's and hiking hotel in the Carinthian mountains
  • Allergy bed linen

    Fortunately, the house dust mite cannot survive above an altitude of 1,700 metres above sea level. The air is too dry. The same applies to mosquitoes and ticks because it is never humid. We have special microfibre duvets and pillows for people allergic to down.
