Nordic Walking

A very popular activity of our spa is Nordic Walking with special walking sticks.

Nordic walking positively affects overall fitness and mobility and improves blood circulation. This effect is also enhanced here by the influence of local, exceptionally high-quality air. As a destination for your walk, you can choose some of the interesting places around the spa to combine its health benefits with a tourist experience.

If you have never tried Nordic Walking, you can book a lesson with a professional instructor, who will introduce you to the walking technique and the local Nordic walking trails. If you do not have your own sticks, you can rent or buy them at the reception of spa hotels.
