Center at Stift Gurk

Holistic balance for body, mind and soul

A romantic monastery in the Gurktal valley in Carinthia and an Indian healing art that is thousands of years old:
The Tulsi Ayurveda Center in the JUFA Hotel Stift Gurk**** perfectly combines both worlds from the West and the East.

Carinthia’s first authentic Ayurveda hotel is located right next to the historic Gurk Cathedral: a true place of power, embedded in the fresh nature of the Gurk Valley. In the unique, spiritual ambience of the former monastery complex with its baroque buildings and fragrant herb garden, you will experience a soothing atmosphere of peace and meditation.

Therapists trained in India provide professional, individually tailored massages and treatments that balance your life energies according to Ayurvedic teachings. Enjoyable Ayurvedic nutrition completes your cure in Gurk and brings renewal, balance and fresh energy.

What is Ayurveda?

Gurktal meets India

Ayurveda – the ‘knowledge of life’ – is a traditional Indian art of healing that is over 5,000 years old and helps to keep body, mind and soul in balance. As a holistic method, it is based on a complete natural system that depends on the diagnosis of the three doshas (vital energies) – Vata, Pitta and Kapha – in order to achieve the right balance.

Tulsi Ayurveda provides very special moments of appreciation, relaxation and mindfulness – a harmonious unity with the spiritual ambience of the monastery.

Doris Latschen Slow food chef & food blogger

They teach Ayurveda authentically, the original Ayurveda from Kerala. It reminded me a lot of my training in India and I was able to take away a lot for my own practice.

Lena Schwind Nutritional therapist and Ayurveda life coach

It’s amazing how much you find yourself here and come to rest. I was incredibly impressed by the combination of regional Carinthian cuisine with Ayurveda cuisine – a culinary delight!

Gudrun Lackinger Clinical pharmacist

From the consultation with the Ayurveda practitioner to the treatments and the wellness area, I am impressed by the professionalism and quality, and I have known Ayurveda for a long time.

Hartwig Ganster Business trainer

The combination of the cathedral and the Ayurveda centre is very exciting and a huge boost for the Gurktal. In addition to the treatment, you also learn a lot about our local herbs.

You arrive, the deceleration is there, and within a few hours you feel as if you’ve been on holiday for days.
