A time of relaxation that stays entirely your own.
At Fender Chalets, relaxation becomes something deeply personal. There is no need to schedule a spa appointment, reserve a place or consider other guests. Your wellness area is exactly where you are staying – and ready whenever you need it.
After a day in nature, the soothing warmth of the sauna awaits. Afterwards, unwind with views of the mountains or let the evening come to a close in the hot tub on the terrace. Perhaps with snow all around. Perhaps beneath the stars. Perhaps simply in that special kind of silence that needs no explanation.
Alm vinothek & The World of Wine with Sommelier
Erwin Fender
At the Fender Chalets, wine is an integral part of the experience. Host and certified sommelier Erwin Fender selects each wine with expertise, passion, and a refined sense for special moments — perfectly paired with a traditional Carinthian snack platter, private dining, the Chef’s Table experience, or a relaxing evening in your chalet.
Both Chalet Emely and Chalet Lena feature a wine climate cabinet stocked with a carefully curated selection of wines from Austria and around the world. This offering is complemented by the Alm Vinothek, the heart of the Fender wine world. This exceptional collection comprises around 6,000 bottles in storage, including approximately 350 handpicked labels and premium wines from renowned wine regions. Personally curated by Erwin Fender and kept under optimal conditions, it reflects his dedication to quality and outstanding wine enjoyment.
Indulgence without a schedule.

Whether you choose to spend the evening quietly at the dining table, curled up by the fireplace or out on the terrace is entirely up to you.

Where the mountains feel closer and
everyday life stays far below.
Fender Chalets are located at Stubeck Sonnalm, 1,750 metres above sea level, high above Gmünd in Carinthia. The setting alone makes this place special: surrounded by alpine meadows, forests and mountain panoramas, far enough away from the everyday and close enough to everything that makes a getaway in Carinthia so memorable.
Up here, the rhythm changes. The air feels clearer, the views stretch further and the days become quieter. In summer, nature begins right outside your door. In winter, the chalet becomes a warm retreat in the snow. And in between, there are countless moments when you simply stay, take in the view and realise nothing is missing.
Summer at Sonnalm
For days filled with fresh mountain air, hiking, panoramic views, relaxing moments on the terrace and peaceful time immersed in nature.
Winter at Sonnalm
For cosy chalet moments, a private sauna, a hot tub beneath the open sky and that special feeling when snow lies outside while everything inside is warm and inviting.
Hospitality here means understanding
what people truly need.
Fender Chalets Sonnalm is a place with character. The Fender family has not simply built chalets here in the mountains; they have created a retreat that combines alpine nature, refined comfort and genuine hospitality.
What you should feel throughout your stay is not intrusion, but attentiveness. Not standardised service, but a thoughtful eye for detail. Not anonymous perfection, but heartfelt hospitality, shaped by experience and an instinctive understanding of when company is welcome – and when peace and privacy are the greatest luxury.
- Personal care from your hosts
- Warm hospitality without intrusion
- Tailored recommendations
- Attention to special requests
- Service with respect for your privacy
Everything is prepared for your arrival.
