What does a typical day of alkaline fasting actually feel like? The nice thing is: you have little to worry about and can consciously make your daily rhythm a little calmer.
In the morning, you start the day relaxed. An alkaline breakfast with fresh ingredients kicks things off before heading outside – depending on the programme and how you feel. A walk, a hike or a light exercise session gets you going and lets you enjoy the nature of the Ore Mountains.
At lunchtime, a freshly prepared alkaline meal awaits you. Afterwards there is plenty of time to rest, read or go on a small discovery tour of the surroundings.
The afternoon can be devoted entirely to relaxation. Enjoy a massage, a sauna session or simply a few quiet hours in the wellness area.
In the evening, a light alkaline meal awaits you. Afterwards you can end the day at your leisure.
This creates a pleasant alternation between mindful eating, exercise, nature and recovery – without the time pressure of everyday life.
Want to fast without going hungry? Then alkaline fasting according to the Wacker method is just right for you – and at Landhotel Altes Zollhaus in the Ore Mountains you will find the right alkaline fasting hotel.
You eat fruit, vegetables, fresh herbs, sprouts and salads – depending on the season, for example dressed with walnut or avocado oil. You will find the detailed overview in our alkaline fasting food list, suitable oils under Which oils are allowed?
Many guests report this after just one week – results vary from person to person.
“Of the events offered by the hotel, I chose a ‘Basenfasten Spezial’ week in a group, and from my first step into the hotel I was enchanted. […] The fasting food at the 3 daily meals was really great – varied in taste and creatively served. […] A clear recommendation for anyone looking for a break for body and mind in a professional and warm environment.”
“My husband and I did an alkaline fasting week and received very thorough, helpful advice. […] The food was delicious and creative, and our wishes were taken into account. The supporting programme and all the little surprises were great – everything simply fit.”
“I did a 7-day alkaline fasting cure there. It was my first time in the Ore Mountains. I liked it very much. The staff were very friendly […] I really enjoyed the food during the alkaline fasting […]”
It feels like you're driving forever, hardly expecting civilisation and suddenly you're immersed in a place surrounded by peace and far away from the hustle and bustle.
A very beautiful hotel with a focus on wellness/relaxation and above all yoga.
Perfect location close to the forest for hiking and cycling. The wellness area with 4 saunas and the outdoor area with water platform are highly recommended.
The excellent food is also worth mentioning.
I visited the pizzeria with my family and the ambience was very nice. You can even watch your pizza being made in the stone oven. It was really delicious and good value for money.
Would come again 👍🏻
Alkaline fasting is a mindful way of eating, but it is not equally suitable for everyone. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, and for children and adolescents, we generally do not recommend taking part in our alkaline fasting offers.
In the case of existing illnesses, health complaints or regular medication you should have a doctor check before starting alkaline fasting whether this way of eating is suitable for you. This applies in particular if a special diet is required because of an illness.
If you are unsure, we also recommend consulting your doctor before booking.
Important: Our alkaline fasting offers are intended for mindful eating, recovery and relaxation and do not replace medical treatment or medical advice.
In the case of allergies or intolerances, please contact us before booking. Together we will be happy to clarify whether and in what form participation is possible.
Alkaline fasting is a time-limited way of eating in which mainly plant-based and alkaline-forming foods end up on your plate. These include in particular fresh vegetables, ripe fruit, potatoes, herbs, salads and selected nuts and seeds.
Alkaline fasting was developed in 1997 by the naturopath Sabine Wacker, who has since published 36 books on the subject. During alkaline fasting, grain, dairy products, meat, fish, sugar, coffee and alcohol are left out for a limited period.
This creates a mindful break from many familiar foods, while at the same time you can enjoy varied meals made from vegetables, fruit and other suitable ingredients.
For an alkaline fasting time out, a period of around 5 to 10 days is often a good choice. This leaves enough time to get used to the changed diet and discover new eating habits.
Alkaline fasting is not intended as a permanent diet consisting exclusively of alkaline-forming foods. After an alkaline fasting week, a balanced, mainly plant-based diet can be supplemented with other foods again.
Many people use alkaline fasting above all as a mindful break from everyday life and as an opportunity to take a fresh look at their eating habits.
After an alkaline fasting week, participants report, for example, that they:
How an alkaline fasting week is experienced is individual. Experiences can therefore differ from person to person.
Alkaline fasting by no means has to mean missing out on enjoyment. Fresh vegetables, potatoes, herbs, salads, fruit and other suitable foods can be turned into surprisingly varied dishes.
Especially during an alkaline fasting holiday, you can focus entirely on your personal time out: the meals are prepared for you and you don't have to worry about shopping or planning your daily dishes.
This leaves more time for exercise, nature, relaxation and, above all, for yourself.
An alkaline fasting holiday combines mindful eating with recovery, exercise and time for yourself. Instead of taking care of shopping, recipes and preparing your meals at home, you can focus entirely on your well-being during your time out.
During your alkaline fasting week, freshly prepared alkaline meals await you every day. The day starts with a light breakfast, for example with fresh seasonal fruit and a muesli suitable for alkaline fasting. At lunchtime, the menu features varied dishes with fresh vegetables, salads, herbs and other alkaline ingredients. In the evening, things can be a little lighter and warmer – for example with gently cooked vegetables or a fine vegetable soup.
Alkaline fasting is not about going hungry or strict deprivation. You may eat, enjoy and at the same time experience very consciously how varied a plant-based cuisine can be.
An alkaline fasting week is about more than food. It gives you the opportunity to leave your everyday life behind for a few days and find more time for yourself again.
Walks and exercise in nature can be part of it, just like quiet hours in the wellness area. Depending on the programme booked, treatments such as alkaline baths, liver compresses or relaxing massages can complement your personal time out.
This creates a special combination of mindful eating, exercise, rest and relaxation.
Depending on the alkaline fasting package, the following services can, for example, be part of your time out:
Exactly which services are included depends on the respective alkaline fasting offer.
A big advantage of an alkaline fasting holiday is that you don't have to take care of many things yourself. Shopping, choosing food and preparing the alkaline meals are all done for you.
This allows you to focus on what these days are really about: unwinding, enjoying mindfully, moving and taking new inspiration home for your everyday life.
In this way, an alkaline fasting week can become a small time out in which nutrition, nature and recovery come together.
For an alkaline fasting week to become an all-round successful time out, competent support and reliable quality standards play an important role alongside the alkaline diet.
Hotels that offer alkaline fasting according to Wacker® meet defined requirements for this. The staff involved are trained accordingly, so that the various areas of the hotel are familiar with the concept. From reception to kitchen and service through to the wellness area, the staff know what matters during an alkaline fasting time out.
The kitchen is particularly important: the choice of food, the composition of the meals and their preparation are based on the guidelines of the alkaline fasting concept.
The quality standards do not end with the first training. Regular further training, the exchange of experiences and recurring reviews help to continuously develop the offer and ensure consistently high quality.
This includes, among other things:
This way you can enjoy your alkaline fasting time out, knowing that a trained team and a clearly defined quality concept stand behind the offer.
An alkaline fasting holiday is not just about mindful eating. Exercise, relaxation and enough time for yourself are equally important parts of a restful time out.
It is not about top athletic performance. Rather, gentle exercise that is fun and fits well into the daily routine is ideal.
The Ore Mountains in particular offer wonderful opportunities to be active during an alkaline fasting week. Walks through the forest, long hikes or Nordic walking combine exercise with fresh air and nature.
Depending on the season, different activities are suitable:
You decide for yourself how intensively you want to move. An alkaline fasting time out may be deliberately slowed down.
Alongside exercise, recovery should also have its firm place. A visit to the wellness area, a soothing sauna session or a relaxing massage can contribute wonderfully to leaving everyday life behind for a few hours.
Quiet moments are valuable too: a good book, a cup of herbal tea, a walk without time pressure or simply doing nothing for once.
If you feel like a change during your alkaline fasting week, you can also use your free time to explore the surroundings.
Nature, small villages, traditional craftsmanship and numerous excursion destinations make the Ore Mountains a varied holiday region. This way, the alkaline fasting week can be wonderfully combined with small discovery tours.
The beauty of an alkaline fasting holiday is the combination: mindful eating, exercise in nature, wellness and plenty of time for yourself.
You decide for yourself whether you would rather spend the day actively or treat yourself to more rest. In this way, the alkaline fasting week can become a personal time out from which you take home new impressions and perhaps one or two ideas for your everyday life.
Yes. In our alkaline fasting weeks the fasting leaders hike with their group – straight from the hotel through the forests and meadows of the Ore Mountains. Exercise in the fresh air supports your circulation and lifts your mood. You can read more in our article Fasting hikes in the Ore Mountains.
Of course, you can also try alkaline fasting at home. But in everyday life it is not always easy to leave old habits behind for a few days.
After all, shopping, planning meals, cooking, working and daily obligations carry on.
On an alkaline fasting holiday, things are different. The alkaline meals are prepared for you and you can consciously withdraw from your usual daily routine.
Instead of shopping lists and cooking pots, nature, exercise, wellness and recovery take centre stage.
This setting can be especially pleasant for beginners. You don't have to keep thinking about which foods are suitable or what to prepare next.
And perhaps that is the greatest luxury of an alkaline fasting week: having to organise less for a few days and having more time for yourself instead.
An alkaline fasting week can also be an opportunity to look at your own eating habits from a different perspective.
Perhaps you rediscover vegetables, come to like a lighter breakfast or take a particularly tasty recipe home with you.
It is not about eating exclusively alkaline foods permanently afterwards. Much more interesting is the question of which experiences and new habits can easily be integrated into your everyday life.
Your alkaline fasting time out may end after a few days – but individual ideas from it can stay with you for much longer.
Take some time for yourself.
