Between wellness and discovery
True relaxation sometimes needs more than healing thermal water and the next infusion. It needs balance. Between movement and rest. Between warm water and fresh air. Between relaxing and experiencing.
Between cultural and culinary highlights and the soothing warmth of the GOLD SPA.
The view of a castle that has throned on a volcanic cone for centuries. Stimulating conversations with the winemaker whose wine tastes of the earth it comes from. A piece of hand-crafted chocolate that melts on the tongue.
Before you dive back into the 35 °C healing thermal water and let the day’s impressions linger.
Out. Discover. Come back. Immerse.
Culture highlights
The Thermen- & Vulkanland is known for its thermal springs and gentle hills. But between the vineyards and fields you will also find castles that have told stories for centuries, historic old towns with Renaissance charm and even a palace whose grounds are now home to giraffes and cheetahs.
