It is said that nature provides us with what we need to survive.
Nothing could be truer in the Sauris Valley! In the past, the Sauris community remained isolated for long periods without the possibility to exchange or trade: having an in-depth knowledge of plants and their virtues was of the utmost importance for ancient medical therapy, as it represented the only possible solution to treat diseases. Today, "Medicinal herbs and plants " are those used to preserve the health and well-being of men and animals: these can be used as they are in cooking, as spices to season food; in the preparation of infusions; or processed in the production of liqueurs, dietary supplements or for cosmetic use.
NATURPREITHS - Agricultural Enterprise
The NaturPreiths agricultural enterprise uses the ancestral energy of alpine herbs released in the form of emotions, flavours and well-being.
NaturPreiths was founded with the objective of rediscovering the traditional alpine herbal culture.
The herbs are cultivated exclusively in the Sauris valley, in an environmentally-pure context or harvested where they grow wild in the woods or in the mountain pastures at a high altitude.
Our products include;
- Fresh aromatic and medicinal herbs
- Dried, individually-packed or mixes of aromatic and medicinal herbs for infusions
- Herb mixes for cooking
- Incense herbs
- Roots for the preparation of liqueurs
- Vegetable crops; the native broad bean of Sauris and Cabbage to make
Sauerkraut.
Moreover, we have created the “Hildemystika” line of products dedicated to the Medieval herbal culture of Hildegard di Bingen.
The quality of our products is due to the splendid context where our company is situated, the cultivation area is at a height of 1,250 above sea level, the wide temperature ranges and the soil that is particularly suitable to grow medicinal herbs.
NaturPreiths can be reached by walking from the village of Sauris di Sopra; then go along the road that leads towards the Rikelan chalet, at the crossroads, turn right along the forest road that is closed to traffic (Path 209). In short, at the end of this you arrive at Preitschpoudn where the company is located.

PA' MAIRLAN - Agricultural Enterprise
NATURE ESSENCE
Vegetable Garden / Gorte
In ancient times, over the Alps, people used to collect or cultivate aromatic and medicinal plants, to make ointments and herbal healings. During the last few years, at Pa’Mairlan that tradition it's been renewed.
In Pa' Mairlan's vegetable garden (gorte, in Sauris language) you will find the same herbs which grow, at more than 1400 meters of altitude, thanks to the quality of the soil and to the pureness of Sauris air. Flowers and plants are hand-picked, dried on wooden frames, and processed in specialized laboratories to create our natural cosmetics.
The “Estratto di Natura” (nature essence - pflegngreiser) herbal infusions and creams are another way Pa' Mairlan uses to take care of the wellness of their guests.
