How a visit works
No rush and no plan needed. These four steps are all there is.
Questions before you comeBuy a pass
Online or at the desk. Online passes skip the queue at weekends.
Change and shower
Your wristband opens a locker. Shower before every pool: the spring water stays clean that way.
Hot, then cold
Ten to fifteen minutes in the hot spring or a sauna, then the cold plunge, then rest. Repeat.
Rest and eat
The relaxation room is quiet; the café serves soup, salads and lemonade in your robe.

Notes from the baths
Your first visit: how to bathe
Hot, cold, rest, repeat. What our attendants tell everyone who comes in for the first time.
How to
Why hot and cold?
The oldest habit of the baths, and what a minute in 18 °C water does after the sauna.
How to
Night bathing under the dome
Coloured lights, a cellist by the pool and the hall to ourselves until midnight. The next dates are in the letter.
Events
Night bathing first
A short letter when we announce a night bathing party or a new treatment, with a day to book before anyone else.
The water is warm
Open every day from 7:00, until 22:00 and on Saturdays until midnight.
