Frequently asked questions about the region
What does the Rottal Terme offer?
The tourist heart of the town: thermal water up to 70 °C hot from the depths, spread over more than 30 thermal and outdoor pools — from the outdoor pools you look out over the Rott and the surrounding hill landscape.
Add the health-promoting treatments of the thermal bath itself, from the classic cure programme to free use of the baths.
What distinguishes Bad Birnbach from the neighbouring spas?
The scale: with around 5,000 inhabitants Bad Birnbach is the most rural of the three spas in the Lower Bavarian spa triangle — a bathing and health resort with village character instead of a spa-town backdrop, in the gentle valleys between the Danube, Rott and Inn.
Whoever seeks the quietest variant of the Golf & Thermal Land finds it here — the sunny hill landscape has earned the region the nickname “Lower Bavarian Tuscany”.
Can you play golf in Bad Birnbach?
Yes — the “Bella Vista” golf resort runs an 18-hole course, a 9-hole short course and a generous driving range; together with the courses of the neighbouring towns the Golf & Thermal Land counts among golfers as an insider tip, from beginner to professional.
What about hiking and Nordic walking?
Around the town stretches a well-signposted hiking area of around 80 kilometres. Nordic walkers train on professionally assembled routes through the Rottal — exploring the landscape and a training goal in one.
When is the best time to come?
The thermal baths of the region are open all year; spring and autumn count as the most pleasant windows with mid-range prices. In winter thermal bathing shows its greatest charm — steaming outdoor pools in the frosty air —, in high summer families take over with thermal days and cycle tours along the Rott, Inn and Danube.
