If you’d like to escape the usual hustle and bustle of Vienna for some relaxation, you can reach the legendary organic wellness spa in the Pöllauer Tal Nature Park in less than 2 hours. A day spa ticket starting at €80 will give you a relaxing day of respite there. Both delicious organic snacks and beverages are included in the price, as the facility has been certified organic for over 30 years.
Swimming with a view of the countryside and enjoying the sauna in the forest
There, the wellness area spans a total of 3,200 m² of spa space, with the Wald.SEIN area —covering 2,000 m² —reserved for adults. You can also swim laps in the 25-meter-long lap pool or cool off in the 350-square-meter natural swimming pond, for example. In addition, the forest sauna area offers a spruce-infused sauna at 85 to 100 °C for sauna enthusiasts.
Since targeted cold stimulation strengthens circulation, you can then use the Waldfrost ice room with crushed ice. Likewise, the brine steam bath, with up to 100% humidity, invites you to take a deep breath. While the year-round heated outdoor pool awaits you at 31 °C, you can relax indoors in the 35 °C indoor whirlpool.

If you’d like to rejuvenate your body, you can choose from treatments based on the F.L.O.W. principle as well as local natural cosmetics made from sea buckthorn. This allows you to tailor your day to your individual needs, so you can completely unwind without any stress.
Even if you’re only visiting for a day, you’ll start to feel relaxed after just a few minutes. Plus, you can round off your evening perfectly with an organic gourmet meal. In short: This trip is definitely worth it for both body and mind.
