Relax and unwind in pleasant heat
Saunas & Steam Rooms
Take time out and relax with the power of nature. Enjoy the luxury of doing nothing at our KARWENDEL SPA, a world away from the distractions of everyday life. The use of all saunas and steam rooms is free for all Wiesenhof guests. Saunas and steam rooms are open daily from 11:00 to 19:00. The sauna area is a textile-free area and reserved for guests aged 12 years and over.
Alpine Herbs Sauna
A combination of thermal heat and exquisite herbs from the Karwendel mountains. An arrangement of herbs is placed in the centre. We use chamomile (relaxing, anticonvulsant), sage (purifying, anti-septical) and lavender (cell renewing, purifying). The automatic spraying of the herbs with water creates a pleasant aroma and increases the air humidity.
Temperature ca. 60°C. Bathing time: 10 – 20 minutes
Beehive Sauna
As the name suggests, the sauna used to be a beehive. We have converted it into a traditional Finnish sauna with plenty of space. Windows, floor, sauna stove, wooden benches – the honeycomb shapes remind you of its original purpose. And if you are really quiet and listen carefully, you might still be able to hear the humming of the bees…
Temperature ca. 85°C. Bathing time: 10 – 15 minutes
Sweating Room
If the traditional Finnish sauna is too hot for you, try our sweating room. The walls, benches, floor and footrest are heated and create an indirect thermal heat up to 75°C. By slowly heating your body, the cleansing process is very gentle. After 20 minutes, we recommend a shower with the Kneipp hose in the direction of the heart. This stimulates the cardiovascular system and enhances the detoxification process. After a further 20 minutes, repeat the shower with the Kneipp hose. After the bath, take a warm shower.
Bathing time: 30 – 60 minutes
Salt Steam Room
Hall (formerly Solbad Hall), a town close to Innsbruck, has a long tradition of salt mining in the Karwendel mountains. In our salt steam sauna finely dispersed brine is sprayed into the cabin. The brine and steam technique combined with the thermal heat create a cleansing and healing process for the respiratory system. We use mint essences to enhance the pleasant steam bath.
Bathing time: 10 – 20 minutes
Sonnenhalle & Swimming Hall
The Sonnenhalle relaxation room is the perfect place to read a book or a magazine, or to relax after sauna bathing or swimming. The comfortable loungers in the swimming hall and in the garden afford beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.
Heated Loungers
Part of the sauna relaxation area is equipped with heated tile loungers which provide a constant warm heat of ca. 39°C. This “artificial fever” is ideal to relieve stress and enhance the immune system.
- Temperature: ca. 39°C
