Bad Griesbach-Therme: Thermal Baths, Trails and Hotels

Bad Griesbach-Therme offers several distinct themes to consider when planning your stay: the Wohlfühl-Therme Bad Griesbach and its hamam, a barefoot trail in the spa park and spa forest, local-history hikes, and spa concerts. The activities also differ in how firmly they are tied to a schedule: the hikes have a fixed day of the week and starting time, while the concerts take place during the concert season. If you are looking for a hotel, you can first consider which activities you want to shape your stay.

Wohlfühl-Therme and Hamam

The Wohlfühl-Therme Bad Griesbach mainly uses water from the Nikolaus spring. It rises to the surface from a depth of 1,522 metres at a temperature of about 60°C. The thermal water’s source is therefore one of the specific details of this offering.

The hamam at the Wohlfühl-Therme offers traditional Oriental bathing culture, with herbal steam baths, a dry sauna, a thermal pool, a soap massage and an Oriental relaxation room. The experience ranges from steam and heat to massage and relaxation. Check the hamam’s current opening status before visiting.

Barefoot Trail and Hikes

The barefoot trail in the spa park and spa forest in Bad Griesbach-Therme passes over sand, sandstone slabs, shell limestone, a pole path, rolled pebbles in various grades, granite paving, balance blocks, basalt chippings, cobblestones, boulders and round timber sections. The trail alternates between loose materials, stone surfaces and wood. The focus is on experiencing the different surfaces barefoot.

Local-history hikes require different planning: they start on Wednesdays at 1 pm from the Holzhäusl bus stop in Bad Griesbach-Therme. The walking time is about 2 to 3 hours, followed by a planned stop at an inn of about one hour. If you plan to join this activity, allow for the fixed start time and the allotted time for the walk and the stop.

The area around Bad Griesbach also has a 242-kilometre network of 26 hiking and Nordic walking trails. The routes offer a chance to explore the landscape, cultural sites and places of interest. This is a different scale of planning from the specifically named barefoot trail: one is a trail with changing surfaces, the other a network of routes around Bad Griesbach.

Spa Square, E-Bikes and Spa Concerts

There is a public e-bike charging station on Spa Square in Bad Griesbach-Therme. It is free to use around the clock and has four lockable compartments for up to two batteries. For planning a cycling trip, both its location and the stated charging facilities are specified.

During the concert season, spa concerts take place in the concert pavilion on Spa Square in good weather; in bad weather, they move to the spa hall or the Small Hall. The venue therefore depends on the weather. If a concert is important to your stay, check the dates and the latest event information.
