My Gastein experience
Add to that a wide range of health and movement programmes, plus the quiet strength of nature itself. Whether you’re sinking into warm water, breathing deeply among the trees or greeting the sun on a mountain meadow: Wellness in Gastein is a truly holistic experience.
In Gastein, two thermal spas offer moments of pure wellness framed by mountain views. Each has its own character, yet both draw their power from the soothing thermal water of the High Tauern mountains. Alpentherme spa impresses with its dedicated relaxation, family and sauna zones, while Felsentherme spa fascinates visitors with its unique architecture built directly into the rock.
The famous Gastein thermal water plays a key role not only in spa experiences but also in therapeutic treatments. With its unique blend of natural minerals and a mild radon content, it supports relaxation and regeneration of muscles and joints, whether in the healing gallery, the thermal steam bath or a soothing radon radon bath.
Amid rushing waterfalls, ancient stone pine forests and peaceful alpine pastures lie special places in the Gastein valley that have long been known as sources of natural energy, where nature feels more intense: Your breathing deepens, your thoughts clear, your heart finds calm. Whether you pause by a waterfall or take a mindful moment along the Swiss stone pine trail, these spots offer tangible relaxation and renewed strength.
When the alpine meadows turn lush green or glow in golden autumn light, the Gastein valley becomes a paradise for outdoor yoga. During international events such as the Gastein Yoga Days, renowned teachers and yoga enthusiasts gather against a stunning mountain backdrop. Breathing exercises and meditations take place in nature – on mountain meadows, beside clear lakes or with views of the peaks. Even outside the festivals, retreats and workshops, Gastein provides ideal conditions for individual yoga sessions.
The forests surrounding Gastein are places of deep tranquillity. During forest bathing sessions or guided forest health programs, guests immerse themselves in this atmosphere with mindfulness and intention. Studies confirm the positive effects: Stress hormones decrease, concentration improves, and blood pressure stabilises. At the same time, the experience of nature inspires lightness and calm – a true source of well-being for body and mind.
