You need a counterweight to a stressful working life? You simply want to leave everyday life behind for once? Quickly and comfortably at that? Then you are ripe for a short break of a special kind: a spa holiday in Bavaria.
Whether wellness or spa — promoting well-being and health works particularly well with massages, cosmetic treatments and in healing baths. Systematic nutrition programmes help too, of course, but on a wellness holiday it is culinary pleasure that takes centre stage. The keywords are well-being, fitness and happiness. Every treatment that provides mental and physical relaxation is permitted. Leisurely sauna rounds are the classic, but these days there is so much more.
The pivot of systematic relaxation is the spa hotel, for it is a haven of happiness for every wellness fan. It is distinguished by an extensive wellness and spa offering. It has everything you need for a healthy and varied diet, and is just as much a temple of pleasure. It also has qualified staff who know how wellness works. It may lie in a quiet location with the best air and have fantastic natural sights right outside the entrance. But it does not have to — because in the middle of the big city, too, there are spa hotels for the highest demands, with five stars and all the trimmings.
But why Bavaria of all places?
For many people a holiday in Bavaria is all very nice, but there are so many distant dream destinations too. The Maldives, Thailand and others are considerably hipper, more “in”, simply on trend. Even Mallorca is quicker to reach than Munich is from Hamburg by car. All the same, you should not underestimate Germany's largest federal state, because it is simply perfect for a spa holiday. Bavaria has numerous hotels that genuinely and very thoroughly put the well-being and health of their guests at the centre — from Franconia via the Bavarian Forest to the Alpine foothills.
