Ayurveda and the Dolomites – a perfect symbiosis at the Hotel ENGEL Ayurpura
- Maria Kraft
The Hotel ENGEL Ayurpura creates something unique: it combines the millennia-old wisdom of Ayurveda with the breathtaking Alpine landscape of South Tyrol. The result is a holistic wellness experience that not only brings body and mind into harmony, but also harnesses the healing powers of nature. But how exactly is this combination implemented at the Hotel ENGEL Ayurpura?
Experience the five elements of Ayurveda in the Dolomites

The alpine backdrop of South Tyrol offers an enchanting setting for Ayurvedic treatments.
- Earth: Medicinal plants such as arnica are used in massages and strengthen well-being.
- Water: The clear mountain spring water is an essential component of hydrotherapy.
- Air: The fresh mountain air is ideal for relaxing breathing exercises (pranayama) and meditation.
- Fire: In the cozy saunas and steam baths, the inner fire is kindled to revitalize body and soul.
- Space: The vast sky above the Dolomites embodies the space element and creates the perfect atmosphere for inner harmony and relaxation.
The untouched nature of the Dolomites creates the ideal space for regeneration and slowing down. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Dolomites are not only a unique landscape, but also an ideal place to bring body and mind into harmony. Together with Ayurvedic teachings, a healing interplay of nature, tranquillity and holistic well-being unfolds here.

Individual Ayurveda experiences at ENGEL Ayurpura
Upon arrival, guests are given a comprehensive Ayurvedic consultation, during which their personal dosha (body type) is determined. Tailor-made treatments are determined on the basis of this individual diagnosis. Traditional treatments such as Abhyanga full-body oil massages and Panchakarma detox programs are perfectly adapted to the environment and the specific needs of the guests.
Regionality and the principles of Ayurveda are also harmonized in the cuisine of the ENGEL Ayurpura. Ayurvedic principles take center stage and are enriched by locally sourced ingredients. With much love and care, the kitchen team prepares dishes from local, organic ingredients that are both easily digestible and take into account the guests’ demands for fine cuisine. The result is a harmonious fusion of pleasure and health.
