Thermal Spas in Gastein – Discover Alpentherme & Felsentherme

Thermal Water, Wellness & Relaxation.

Simply dive in, switch off, and let the mountains be mountains for a few hours. If you want to combine your holiday in Gastein with a visit to a spa, you have two special addresses to choose from: the Alpentherme Gastein in Bad Hofgastein and the Felsentherme Bad Gastein.

Both spas are characterized by the traditional Gastein thermal water, which originates from a total of 17 natural springs in the Gastein Valley. For centuries, the thermal water has been closely linked to the region’s health and bathing culture. Today, it can be enjoyed in total relaxation in modern thermal pools, extensive wellness areas, and sauna landscapes.

The Alpentherme Bad Hofgastein offers various spa worlds for relaxation, sauna, sports, and families across approximately 36,000 m². A special highlight is the thermal water swimming lakes, which are filled with 100% Gastein thermal water and cleaned without chlorine via a biological filter system.

Just a few kilometers away, the Felsentherme Bad Gastein awaits as a second extraordinary thermal spa in the Gastein Valley. Natural rock formations, thermal pools, and indoor and outdoor areas meet the impressive backdrop of the Hohe Tauern mountains here. The spa combines tranquility, water experiences, and panoramic wellness right in the heart of Bad Gastein.

Whether after a day on the mountain, on a rainy day, or simply as a deliberate break in between: wellness and thermal spas in Gastein are just as much a part of a holiday in Salzburger Land as hiking and skiing.
