Brine bath – float and unwind

Just lean back and enjoy the feeling of weightlessness: our brine bath with a 3% salinity level supports your body and brings soothing relaxation. The warm brine nourishes the skin, may support metabolism and can have a pleasant effect on muscle tension. At 33°C, this bath becomes a truly special time-out. A real highlight, as Sonnengut is one of the few hotels with its own brine bath.
