Those who prefer to stay active will discover the perfect change of pace on the barefoot path, in the Kneipp pool, in the outdoor fitness area, or on the boules court. And to top it off: a refreshing drink at the pool bar and views over the Rottal valley. This is what vacation feels like.
Open-air pool feeling with comfort
Our spacious freshwater pool offers true open-air swimming enjoyment in summer. When the weather is fine, the retractable roof opens to let in sunshine and fresh air. This lets you enjoy your laps outdoors, cool off in between, or relax on the sunbathing lawn. Sonnengut provides the comfort and service to match.
Enjoy small delicacies in our wellness garden
On sunny days, when a healthy appetite interrupts your time in the water, the terrace becomes your favorite spot. Order a freshly prepared snack, a light salad, or a cool drink at our pool bar and treat yourself to a well-deserved break from swimming. Whether it’s an afternoon aperitif, a homemade ice cream shake, or an espresso in between, here you can enjoy great taste exactly where you’re relaxing.
