A farm with history

A special place for centuries

The Hecherhof is one of the oldest farms in Viehhofen – first mentioned in a document in 1272. It has been family-owned since 1764 and is now run in the eighth generation by the Breitfuß family. The farmhouse itself tells its own story: about centuries-old walls, old doors that creak, and a floor that many generations have walked on – and that has been lovingly renovated with a lot of heart.

Tradition meets new paths

Where people used to work with horses and scythes, there are now suckler cows, goats and even hunting dogs. The Breitfuß family has constantly developed the farm – with courage, sustainability and a strong connection to nature. Whether it’s Alpine salmon farming or game refining, Jaga-Alm or guest rooms – the Hecherhof has always been a place for new ideas rooted in tradition.

In the middle of life. In the middle of nature.

Surrounded by alpine meadows, mountains and animals, the Hecherhof is a place that decelerates and connects. Here, the family lives what they love – agriculture, hunting, crafts and hospitality. Anyone who spends their vacation here quickly notices: This is not just any farm – it is a real home with history.
