Wellness with a View: Relaxation Amidst the Alpine Panorama

Feel the elemental power of the mountains and look out over half of Carinthia at the same time - this is possible at the panoramic wellness centre at the Feuerberg Mountain Resort at 1,766 metres above sea level in the Gerlitzen Alpe ski area. Infinity pool with uninterrupted views of the Karawanken mountain peaks or panorama pool with open glass pavilion - the choice is yours if you want to feel the water on your skin while looking out over the valleys. In summer, the alpine lake in front of the hotel invites you to take a dip in the refreshing water.

To purify and detoxify the body, there is the rock sauna directly in the Gerlitzen rock, the Himalayan salt sauna, the infrared heart sauna or the concert sauna with panoramic views. Those who want to savour the distant view can nestle down in "Wolke 7" (Cloud 7) - a relaxation room with a view of the Carinthian lakes.

The Kristallhütte at 2,147 metres in the Hochzillertal Kaltenbach ski area is a sought-after hotspot in the Alps. The luxurious Alpine Lodge suites are furnished with local larch wood, fine fabrics and elegant marble and offer sweeping views and every imaginable comfort thanks to the summit location.

The wellness area with legendary panoramic views is located above the suites. A spacious Swiss stone pine sauna with panoramic views, an aroma steam bath with a view, a relaxation area with a tea bar, juices and fruit and a cosy nest for two with a waterbed ensure a lasting feel-good experience.

The outdoor pools are reminiscent of glowing spaceships, while the glazed thermal spa offers a view of the gigantic Ötztal Alps. From an architectural perspective, the AQUA DOME is just as much an experience as the quality of the facilities on offer.

The 4-star superior Hotel AQUA DOME Tirol Therme Längenfeld offers an oasis of peace and regeneration. The extraordinary spa and sauna area is connected by a futuristically designed bathrobe corridor that leads directly into the hotel. In the rooms and suites, furnished with natural materials, lots of wood, and warm colours, an atmosphere of alpine-modern comfort can be felt.

Perched high above Schruns, on the Bartholomäberg at 1,100 metres above sea level, the Fernblick holiday hotel lives up to its name. When swimming in the panorama sky pool, you can enjoy nature from the front row, as the pool - supported by sturdy stilts - rises 20 metres above the slope.

Next to the sky pool, guests can immerse themselves in the pleasantly temperate water in the panoramic whirlpool. And in the "Feingefühl-Badehaus", inside the hotel, body and mind also find balance: In the relaxation rooms, wonderful fragrances and flavours fill the air and stimulate the senses.

People who love indulgence as much as romance will find a cosy retreat in the lovely village of Mattsee. Idyllically nestled between the lake of the same name and Lake Obertrum, guests can relax in the "Himmelreich" spa. Situated on three floors, with a Finnish sauna, herbal steam bath, brine grotto, relaxing cosy relaxation area and large double loungers.

A dip in the panorama pool makes you feel at one with the lake, and in summer the roof terrace invites you to sunbathe. Seewirt Mattsee offers additional romantic services for lovebirds or couples on their honeymoon: On request, lovers can literally float on cloud nine on a hot air balloon ride.

Lake Wolfgangsee in the Salzkammergut presents itself as an oversized bathtub filled with crystal-clear drinking water and framed by impressive mountains. From the romantic hotel Weißes Rössl in St. Wolfgang, guests can step directly into the waves even in winter - namely into the 30-degree warm water of the lakeside spa and the Rössl pool.

The hotel has a 1,500 m² wellness area: In addition to the pools and the lake, a panoramic sauna and a panoramic relaxation room offer views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.
