maybe the wpa_passphrase utility could help you to create the config.
In this particular case:

$ wpa_passphrase "Naturhotel Wieserhof" "N@tur%Wieser"
network=3D{
        ssid=3D"Naturhotel Wieserhof"
        #psk=3D"N@tur%Wieser"
        psk=3Db853709a9edcd50edf0835f68bf099255cb32fc462e492117fe3c42ab2a38=
7cb
}

,or you might want to try wpa_gui.

Cheers,
