The farmstead is officially named the Köpfinghof.
The building features traditional Tyrolean farmhouse architecture, characterized by its timber construction and wide, overhanging roof.
The actual medical practice interior shown on television is built and filmed inside a studio set in Schwoich, not at the Köpfinghof.
The site sits at an elevation of approximately 800 meters above sea level.
The farm has been in the same family's possession for generations, predating its selection for television production.
The location is a frequent stop on local tractor tours offered in the Söll region.
The Gruberhof, known in reality as the Köpfing farm, serves as the primary filming location for the exterior shots of the fictional 'Bergdoktor' practice in the German-language television series Der Bergdoktor. Located in the Söll municipality of the Wilder Kaiser region, the farm dates back to the 17th century. While the exterior of the building is iconic for fans, the interior of the house is a private residence and is not accessible to the public. The site is a working agricultural farm, and visitors are restricted to designated viewing areas. The location offers sweeping views of the Wilder Kaiser mountain range. It has become a significant pilgrimage site for television enthusiasts since the series began filming there in 2008. The property remains an active farm, meaning livestock may be present in surrounding pastures.

Respect the private nature of the property by staying strictly behind the marked ropes and boundaries.
Bring sturdy footwear, as the path from the nearest parking area involves a walk on gravel and unpaved terrain.
Check local tourism board notices before visiting, as filming schedules can occasionally restrict access to the site.
Do not attempt to walk onto the farm's private lawn or touch farm equipment, as this is a working agricultural business.
The site is typically closed to visitors during the winter season and during active filming days.
Maintain silence, respect the residents' privacy, and do not attempt to enter the farmhouse or private outbuildings.
