Do you like to get up early and be really active in the morning, even on vacation? Then we have the right tips for the best places and activities around our sustainable Green Pearls® hotels. Welcome an unforgettable vacation day with the sun and find out more about the sunrises in the Green Pearls® hotels.
Start the day by the sea
At Timmendorfer Strand, the sun rises directly over the Baltic Sea and this natural spectacle is something you can best enjoy directly from the beach. The Lifestylehotel SAND has a very special accommodation option for this: a sleeping beach chair. If you like, you can also start the day right and do some gymnastics, go jogging or swim in the sea. Marion Muller, the owner of the sustainable lifestyle hotel, recommends an excursion to the Brodtener Steilufer with a panoramic view over the Bay of Lübeck or a bike tour with the hotel’s myBoo bikes along the Bay of Lübeck in the direction of Travemünde or Neustadt. If you prefer to stay at the hotel, there are also myBoo fitness bikes on the observation deck overlooking the Baltic Sea.
Early morning hike
If you are more in the mood for a sunrise in the mountains, Daniel Ganzer, owner of the Hotel Outside in East Tyrol, has the perfect tips for you. He has shared his personal power spots around Matrei with us. The nature hotel is an excellent starting point for several hiking routes. A very special atmosphere is waiting for you when you start hiking at sunrise or when you are already in the mountains. You can take some food along with you and have breakfast in beautiful nature. From June to September the hike to the edelweiss meadow is well worth it because this is the flowering time of the alpine flower. You can find more hiking routes and all the special aspects of the individual routes here.
Yoga in paradise
At Gili Lankanfushi, the morning begins with a yoga class on the beach. Yoga master Dev provides a relaxed and conscious start into the day. Stretch your muscles, feel how you become more flexible, and balance your mind and body. This is especially easy in the beautiful nature of the eco-resort. Even though the sun rises around 6 a.m. in the Maldives, the yoga class doesn’t start until 8 a.m. every day. Until then, you can enjoy the sunrise from the terrace of your villa or go for a swim.
Alpine Glow
Alisia Fioriti, a young Italian writer inspired by the unique ambiance of Paradiso Pure.Living and the beauty of the Alpe di Siusi, has described her impressions of the special natural spectacle of the alpine glow. This is because in the alpine region in South Tyrol there is neither sunrise nor sunset. The term alpine glow is based on the word “enrosadira”. In Ladin, this literally means the “pinking of the sky” during the moments when the sun rises and sets. The experience of the Enrosadira in the middle of the Dolomites is something very special. You can do yoga in the rising sun on the terrace of the Paradiso. Surya Namaskar, the classic sun salutation, can be practiced in the morning and evening. It consists of 12 asanas practiced in a continuous flow, corresponding to the 12 months of the solar year and the 12 names of the sun. Besides yoga, Alisia feels that the good alpine air is a true elixir of life.
By the way, there is no need for the sleepy heads amongst you to be disappointed, the second part of this little series is about the most beautiful sunsets.
